Food scene
Where the locals go to eat ;)
Very well known traditional cuisine, mostly high quality meat and fish, all local. I always order seasonal food, such as vrganje soup (a type of local mushroom) or asparagus!

One of the best, family-owned, restaurants in the area. They are known for their meat dishes, truffle and prosciutto, and cheese. Everything is homemade! The owner and cook, Mira, will take good care of you. Definitely my favourite place!

Amazing fish cuisine, located directly next to the see. Very quiet and hidden, which makes it magical. Staff is very nice. Furthermore, it is only a few km away from the Villa. Best time to visit is when the sun is setting. The view is incredible.
Fresh carpaccio from Brancin or Orada, as well as the black rizotto are highly recommended. Mhmmm, bon appetit!

Food Design
As of 2010, the family tavern changed its paradigm and gradually began to transform itself into a place of food design and became one of the most desirable restaurant experiences in Croatia. The idea of restructuring the restaurant was driven by Fabricio’s love for local foods and all their benefits, but also the ambition to offer something different, more modern, imaginative with well-known and appreciated products.

Danijel Dekic has succeeded of making a name for himself as a reference for haute cuisine in a country that is starting to establish itself in the world of gourmet dining. His cuisine is spectacular, almost theatrical, in its presentation, as well as being highly creative. Situated in the heart of Rovinj, within sight of Sant’Eufemia church, Monte is a restaurant with a modern and trendy feel – definitely not to be missed if you find yourself in the town.

Fantastic wine! Make sure to call for reservation. Perfect for bigger groups. Terran Barrique is my tip, but the others are all worth tasting. The winery is beautifully situated and very close to Motovun, truffles and nice village.
