Widely recognized as one of the best and most amibtious restaurants on the Adriatic, Pelegrini lives up to its reputation. The elaborate tasting menu (955 kn) showcases traditional ingredients of the Dalmatian sea, lakes and fields in imaginative dishes. The restuarant also offers a 4-course minimum à la carte meal (400 kn), as well as a newly introduced, inspired platter of 13 bites (899 kn, including wine).
Meals at Pelegrini consist of such creations as mint-granita-covered oysters, duck prosciutto with goat cheese and peppers, and anchovy terrine. The vegetarian options, including Đuveđ frito misto and chickpeas, deserve as much attention.
Pelegrini succesfuly defies the expectations one might have of food at remarkable urban locations: platters for two are served at the tables outside, with a view of St. James Cathedral, while the tasting menu is well suited for the atmosphere of the large terrace, atop a cistern with four wells.
