There are dozens of ice cream parlours everywhere in Split, it seems like there is no street corner where there is not one, especially in the old town. Although sometime colours of ice cream they offer sometime doesn’t look very promising, you can stay calm, it’s usually completely safe to eat it, either those bought in some pastry shop, cafe, or those packed in supermarkets.
There is, however, one phenomena when speaking about ice cream in Split. Locals have their all-time favourite place, a little bit off the beaten tourist paths. It’s called – what else – Slasticarnica (pastry shop) Hajduk. You should know by now what Hajduk is standing for – the biggest local craze, Split beloved football club. It’s based in Matosica street, on the verge of Varos, one of the most beautiful Split neighbourhoods, and popular accommodation site. It’sght not rare that you will see a long cue in front of it, people waiting to get a cone with one of two dozen flavors.
What is so special about Hajduk? On the first sight, not much, until you try their ice cream. It’s hugely popular, and local taste is usually good choice.
