We were only 2 and a half hours on the train so we got into Zagreb too early to check into our apartment. We took our bags up to reception and met H (his name is impossible to pronounce let alone spell). He gave us a few details about Zagreb and directed us to a coffee shop, Express, to dry out from our walk from the train station. I've included a picture of our bill. Check out their wifi password.
Later we explored a bit and then feeling a bit peckish and quite cold we went into a small restaurant called Mundoaka. We ordered some rosé wine and we split a panna cotta. This may be the best dessert I've ever eaten. The panna cotta is sprinkled with crumbled chocolate cookies and topped with strawberries and sauce and all of this is sitting in a sea of dulce leche....heaven. I tried to get a picture before Mary started chowing down but I was too slow.
After we devoured this we went back to reception at ZigZag Zagreb. What they do is buy apartments in older buildings, renovate and rent them out to tourists. So H brought us over and showed us around.
Now it was dinner time...we didn't do much but eat and drink today. Hopefully the rain stops soon otherwise we might come back weighing a lot more. We found Didov San, a restaurant recommend by many sources. We split a Banino Tara which is a turkey stew with roasted potatoes and other vegetables. Great comfort food on a cold, rainy day.
Tomorrow we're planning on getting to the Naive Art Museum as well as the Museum of Broken Relationships! Sounds kind of uplifting doesn't it?
Doviđenja or Bok, both mean goodbye.
