Dining in Cavtat


A Word About Dalmatian Cuisine

As in most of Dalmatia's cities and townships, when you stroll down the Cavtat Riviera and glance over the restaurants' (restoran or konoba) menus, you will find that fish and shellfish prepared with olive oil, garlic, parsley and other herbs top the menu.

What to Taste in Cavtat

For hors d'oeuvre try prsut (Dalmatian smoked ham), mušule or dagnje (mussles) or salata od hobotnice (octopus salad).

If you decided to forgo the Chef's special of the day and you are not exclusively a meat-lover, you may want to try an authentic meal such as škampe na buzaru (shrimps cooked in their own sauce) or brodet (robust fish soup). Grilled white or blue fish is always on the menu and a fine choice as well.

Some restaurants offer food prepared in a traditional way. Ispod peke meals are cooked beneath a metal dome buried in glowing embers and, speaking from experience, are delicious.

Lot of folks enjoy a drop of wine with their meals. Recommended fullbodied reds are Dingač and Plavac, while the whites include Pošip, Grk and Konavosko Zlato.

For dessert, if the traditional Dubrovacka rosata (a uniquely prepared caramel custard) does not meet your taste buds well, you can always go with Prošek (rich and sweet dessert wine made from sun-dried grapes, ice-cream or crapes.

In Cavtat, look out for these friendly restaurants, konobas, bistros:
Leut,
 Domižana, Dalmacija, Posejdon, Ivan, Galija, Ivan, Kolona, ...
