Only peka experience inside Old Town
It’s the best peka you will ever have and the only peka experience inside Old Town. Run, don’t walk, it’s delicious and also a great way to get a glimpse of Croatia’s food culture and meet new friends. Marija and Zlatko are incredible hosts 🙂 ! Eva H.
Best peka I’ve ever had!
Absolutely amazing food – the peka was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. A true taste of tradition. The owners are incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming. You feel like part of the family from the moment you walk in. A small, cozy, family-run gem that deserves all the praise. Mara B.
Don’t even think of leaving Dubrovnik before sharing an amazing evening with Marija & Zlatko!
It’s been 8 months since our memorable trip to Croatia, and the one experience we are still enthusiastically talking about and recommending is an evening at the Papak’s home. This is a unique group ‘breaking bread’ experience in the beautiful garden dining area of two generous and talented Croatians whose goal is to immerse their […]
Fabulous Food and Fun Night
There were 9 of us at the dinner party and what a fantastic dinner party it was. Marija and Zlatko were perfect hosts and we felt like friends around for a evening of good food and conversation. The food was amazing. Beautifully prepared and so fresh, the nicest we had had since arriving in Europe […]
Traditional ways of cooking
Marija and Zlatko were such gracious, warm hosts, the food and wine was so delicious and abundant, and their back yard was so cozy and green, that we quickly forgot that we were half way around the world and that it was raining. Foodies everywhere speak the same language – traditional ways of cooking, where […]
Terrific food, and even more terrific hosts!
The previous comments on this site are so “on-the-mark” that there’s no reason to repeat what has already been so eloquently said by others. Let us just add that no matter how terrific the food we ate, the warmth of our hosts was even more so. Within minutes of meeting Marija and Zlatko, we already […]
Remarkable Experience!
My husband and I were welcomed into Marija and Vlatko’s home for a traditional Croatian dinner. They made us feel like we were at home! We started with homemade cherry and walnut liqueur. It was fabulous. Marija made delightful snacks for us to try. Then the Peka which was cooking for hours in cast iron […]
You Can’t Experience Dubrovnik w/o Marija and Zlatko
Everywhere I travel, I make it a point to seek out where the locals are and how they live – how else are you ever going to truly experience a city’s culture through food, drink and people? This trip to Dubrovnik was no different, other than the fact that Marija and Zlatko are at the […]
Perfect
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien And that is exactly how dinner at Marija and Zlatko’s home started and ended. It was my first time in Dubrovnik and won’t be my last after this food journey at Marija and […]
Don’t miss this!
I was traveling solo in Dubrovnik and decided to book this experience for my birthday dinner. At first, I was a little nervous about spending my birthday dinner with complete strangers but Marija made me feel like part of the family. I ate the best food, drank too much of her homemade cherry liquor and […]
