One of the more confusing things about life in Croatia is the food. 

Don’t worry, the food is amazing, and I totally agree with Anthony Bourdain and his now infamous No Reservations show about Croatia when he was totally blown away by a cuisine he had never come across before. 

But have you ever seen a Croatian restaurant in Croatia?

Dalmatian ones in Dalmalia, Slavonian in Slavonia, nad Istrian in Istria. But it is very rare that you will find a regional restaurant outside of its own region, let alone a Croatian restaurant celebrating its rich regional cuisine in one menu.

And so too with souvenir shops, particularly with food. 

Until now.

Until now on Korcula.

One hears so much about the truffles of Istria, and you may well taste them in the restaurants of Korcula, but how about owning your own, or bringing back an ideal Croatian present for your foodie friends back home?
