Le Mandrac

Posted by psydeshow 27 November 2006

This restaurant sits at the water's edge in the picturesque harbour of Volosko, 20 mins drive west of Rijeka.

As one expects, fresh fish stands out on the menu, but there's a good choice of other dishes. The food is top notch and with a fine selection of local and imported wines, this place stands out.

Hotel Draga di Lovrana

Posted by Suzi Ilic 8 August 2006

This is a restaurant in a newly refurbished hotel, with stunning views of the Kvarner Bay, Rijeka and the mountain of Ucka. Only half an hour’s drive from Rijeka, it offers splendid al fresco dinning on its terrace overlooking the sea.

The food is imaginative and based on the traditional regional cuisine (such as risotto with scampi and asparagus followed by fish baked in salt), deliciously prepared and served with style. The wine list features good quality local wines. Eating here is a memorable experience, but does not come cheap.

Vrh

Posted by Suzi Ilic 8 August 2006

Vrh is a small non pretentious restaurant in the hill village of the same name, about 40 miles from Rijeka in the heart of Istria and the ‘truffle region’.

This is a family run restaurant, which uses local ingredients and offers home-made wine, sparkling wine and all sorts of ‘rakija’ (grappa). We enjoyed locally made cheese (with truffles), prosciutto and home made bread, as well as home-made pastas with truffles filled with cheese, and traditionally prepared roast meat. The meat was the best Sunday roast we ever had! The lunch was completed with a wine and rakija tasting in the owner’s cellar. Good value for money (£10-20 per person, including drinks).
