For thousands of years, Trogir has carefully guarded and nurtured the spirit of Mediteranean.
You can really eat well, speak loudly and grannies still keep the streets under control from their windows. With time Trogir has become a real gastronomical treasure trove feeding every visitor with savoury delicacies: some barbecue, a little bit of peka, brodetto and buzara.
We can agree that the best way of getting to know the town and its local culture is through gastronomy. Here you can eat the finest pizza or pasta, a juicy steak, a prawn salad or smoked cheese and homemade truffle ravioli. Start your day by the southern town gate with smooth coffee and the appetizing tuna toast. At the same time, you can hear the locals at the next table complain about the heat and comment that they can’t remember a summer like this one.
Start talking to them, it’s priceless!
It would be a shame to miss lunch in a small family restaurant where every detail is carefully chosen and the staff is always smiling and friendly. And the food? Fish, crabs and shellfish, lamb, veal, homemade prosciutto, Dalmatian spices and the traditional Trogir dessert rafiol.
Apart from the fact that it tastes out of this world, it’s quite clear why people in restaurants bend over the food while taking pictures of it from all angles (hint: beetroot risotto with truffles doesn’t need any filters).
For an evening out, you can surprise your taste buds with exclusive specialties, so you should listen to Michelin’s recommendation and visit the only restaurant in town that bears this flattering title.
This pearl of the Adriatic abounds in restaurants. Some of them stick to the traditional menu with battered fish and pasticada, while others engage in experiments combining traditional and contemporary cuisine. The food comes to your plate from the nearby fish market, which offers fresh fish every day, colourful open market and local butchers’.
You can also treat yourself to dinner in one of Trogir’s marinas or in restaurants on the Čiovo side of Trogir, from where you can enjoy the view while tasting food and some of the best Croatian wines and aperitifs.
