Torcida, Vrpolje

From family lunches and business dinners to christening reception parties, communion and confirmation celebrations, restaurant Torcida witnesses it all. This family-run restaurant is all about respecting the tradition and the local which might be the reason why so many people love it and choose it to celebrate their most important life events at. Located in Donje Polje, just by the road, Torcida is famous for its roast lamb, the taste and smell of which will hardly leave anybody indifferent. They serve authentic Dalmatian food; Dalmatian prosciutto, sheep milk cheese and delicious home-made bread as appetizers, while among main dishes you may find a great variety of barbecue meat specialties. They offer only the best wines of Croatia, including one that they produce on their own following a secret family recipe.

Chef's Beer

Chef's Beer is the most recent success of some of the most renowned Croatian and Slovenian beer brewers! This unique and quite strong beer - 9,3% of alcohol - just won a gold medal on the prestigious European Beer Challenge held annually in London. The beer is a result of cooperation between the Zmajska, Varionica, and Barut breweries, Bibich Wine Cellar, and chef Mate Janković. This complex beer is not your everyday brew. It is meant for special occasions and to be paired with mature cheeses, oysters, caramel deserts, and other similar delicacies. The limited editions will be available at select stores.
