The culinary philosophy and vision of two chefs: Marko Gajski at the Lešić Dimitri Palace hotel’s Michelin-starred LD restaurant and Dragan Kordić at Filippi.

When your ingredient is of the highest quality, it needs nothing more than a liberal dose of respect to bring out its intrinsic goodness and just a hint of creativity to bring out its unique flavours without changing it in any way.

Some capital cities completely reflect the spirit of their country – and this is certainly the case for magnificent Zagreb. This city teems with movement and positive energy, sometimes evoking the buzz of a lively metropolis, while at other times feeling much more accessible and manageable in size.

With more than 1,200 islands and islets dotted like a string of pearls along the stunning Croatian coast in the Adriatic, Croatia offers a unique travel experience thanks to its abundance of beautiful natural and cultural sights.

Imagine being surrounded by landscapes so beautiful that they recall a painting or a postcard. That’s the first description that comes to mind when we think of magical Istria, where the azure blue of the sea and the verdant nature all around are as appealing as the region’s rich culture of food and wine.

Croatia at its most authentic and traditional: home-made bread and pasta, carefully chosen ingredients sourced from small producers (such as delicious goat’s cheese), and warm, friendly service.

The many different food trends in Zagreb, as showcased in the 14 restaurants selected by the MICHELIN Guide, bear witness to the importance of Mediterranean and market-inspired cuisine, both of which reflect the geography, historical changes and cultural influences in the Croatian capital over the centuries.

A city which has expanded over the centuries between the plain, the Sava river and Mount Medvednica and which has been moulded by a diversity of cultural influences, Zagreb and its historical, architectural and culinary attractions (chosen by the 2020 MICHELIN Guide) holds particular appeal for visitors during the Christian festival of Advent.
