The town's tavern serves first-rate Istrian mainstays on a lovely outdoor terrace offering panoramic views. Start with a shot of biska (white mistletoe grappa). Next try maneštra s kukuruzom (bean and corn soup); continue with truffle-topped fuži (homemade egg pasta twisted into unique shapes); and end with kroštuli (fried crispy pastry covered in sugar).
