What to try in Split

Croatian cuisine is known for its emphasis on vegetables and seafood, often prepared with minimal heat to preserve their natural flavors and health benefits. Some of the most renowned local delicacies include "soparnik," a vegetable pie, and "dalmac prsut," dried smoked ham. "Soparnik" is especially delightful when paired with local olive oil and garlic, while "dalmac prschut" is typically served with local wines.

Influenced by Italian cuisine due to its coastal location, Dalmatian cuisine offers a wide range of dishes, including risotto, pasta with specialty sauces, pizza, and various seafood options. One beloved local favorite is the "black risotto," featuring shrimp in garlic sauce and black squid.

In Split, don't miss the opportunity to savor stew with dumplings (pašticada s njokama or gnocchi).

For cheese enthusiasts, the product from the island of Pag, when paired with Croatian wine or beer, is a must-try.

While the menu selection may not always be extensive, you can rest assured that the dishes offered will be delicious, and the prices are typically quite reasonable. Enjoy your culinary adventures in Split!
