Kroatische traditionele keuken: Peka-kookles

Frolio is the mans man, makes all his own stuff, I wont spoil it for u but Peka cooking wasnt the highlight. it was everything that came with his hospitality. Very authentic and personal, no make up as he put it. We bought some wine and olive oil to take home, so good!

If you want to get to a really authentic out-of-the-way place in the hills near Dubrovnik for a delicious meal cooked in the traditional way with oak fire, hot bricks and iron bell cooking pot, do this. Yes, it's a bit pricey but wow for the food and for the scenic views. The restaurant is a converted railway station and along the way you will see lots of bunkers left over from the war, and the driver will be happy to tell the stories from times past.

This was the highlight of a week long vacation to Dubrovnik- a must see for any foodies. Flora was an amazing host- friendly, informative, and fun. This is by no means a traditional cooking class- it takes place in his home, with his wife there to assist. There is a demonstration of Peka cooking various meats and potatoes prepared on an outdoor fireplace under a metal dome. Homemade bread, cheese, and olive oil are served while the food is cooking and you are given tons of information about food and even life in general in Croatia. He even has his own homemade prosciutto! Grappa and wine are provided and Florio gave me my own take home bottle of grappa when he discovered I liked it so much. This was an amazing experience and I cannot recommend this enough!
