Gastronomy - Feel Losinj! | Mediteran Agency

Gastronomy
The natural wealth of the Cres and Lošinj archipelago provides the basis for the rich and healthy Mediterranean cuisine. The main characteristics of this cuisine are fish and seafood specialities, dishes based on traditional island recipes, use of local aromatic herbs, pot herbs and olive oil.

Smoked ham, sheep’s cheese, salted anchovies, seafood salad are some of the cold starters that you should try. For a hot side dish you can have seafood risotto or pasta, minestra or brodetto Dalmatian style. Fresh sea fish, scampi and squid, prepared in various ways, shellfish, roast lamb under peka (earthen baking lid) are the island specialities. Typical local salad is arugula and radicchio. Dishes are seasoned with fresh oregano, basil, sage, balm, thyme, rosemary and laurel.

Do not leave out wine and home-made brandy with aromatic herbs. We recommend the local wines from the island of Susak. All over the island there are restaurants, taverns and other catering establishments, where you can enjoy international dishes and national specialities, as well as local island specialities.
