Vitalac on Brac

 A rare treat! Found only on Brac and one more village on Crete, vitalac takes lamb' s offal (liver, heart, lungs) skewered and wrapped. After turning on live coals, the sticks are wrapped in lamb's intestines and then turned for another hour. Vitalac is then cut and eaten while the diners wait for the whole lamb to be baked. Wine and drinks included.

The journey begins from Split harbor and continues across the hills of Brac Island to tiny Skrip village where guests get introduced to history of the island and its traditions. Next stop is picturesque and wonderfully preserved Dol village where our cooking class takes place. The cooking class of vitalac also combines the lamb cooking traditions of Brac island.
 

The program is offered from Split area.

Peka lesson in Primošten Burni

 Peka is one of the best known traditional Croatian dishes. Though simple at first glance, Peka requires a great deal of skill and experience. Gourmands regard food prepared under a peka as the ultimate in grilled dishes. At first glance, a peka seems like such a simple accessory - a domed lid shaped like a cupola. It can be made of metal, thinner or thicker, or even of cast iron, but true connoisseurs prefer an earthenware peka. Food cooked under peka, be it in a fireproof pot under the coals or directly on a stone slab, is a hearty meat and vegetable dish. Usually veal, lamb or yearling beef covered with potatoes and other vegetables. And of course, best enjoyed with a fantastic local red babic wine!
The program is offered from Split and Šibenik area and starts when our guide picks you up at your hotel or private apartment.
This program has been described, by our clients, as one of the most authentic culinary experiences in Europe!

Price per person: from 60 Euros    
Available:             Year round
Group size:           1 - 20 guests
