Last week, Dubrovnik Restaurant hosted a group of local bloggers to a special evening of traditional Croatian cuisine. Many of them had not even heard of Dubrovnik City let alone taste our cuisine, so it was exciting to introduce them to our dishes and see their reactions.

Here are some photos from the night:

The bloggers have published their reviews along with their photographs. Here’s what some of them said.

Lovely ambiance, interesting & delicious food, & friendly service. The price may be slightly high, but for the quality that you get, it’s worth paying the price to try out something different.
– Ruth from The Ruthless Eaters

The lamb was tender and moist, falling off the bone, and the spices had worked in erasing the lamby smell. Highly recommended

Sunny from BigBoysOven.com had an enjoyable time at our 1st anniversary celebrations. As a real foodie, it was not surprising that he enjoyed the cooking demonstration by Chef Zoran Djumic. He wrote:

Chef Zoran is serious about his cooking and in creating luxury dishes of true home cooked food. He painstakingly places a lot of attention and detail to preparation and to the selection of freshest of products and ingredients, combining rustic dishes with the modern cuisine techniques.

Sunny also took lots of photos. Read about our 1st anniversary celebrations from Sunny’s perspective:

Ken from FoodPOI.com stopped to sample some Croatian cuisine last week. He enjoyed the meal so much that he says it gives his favourite Penang hawker food a run for its money!

Ken is an avid photographer and took lots of fantastic photos of our restaurant. He also said:

Overall we had a pleasant dinner here which the service is pretty much personalized. Foods were fresh and reasonably priced. A truly home cook feel from Croatia.

The team from local food blog Malaysia Food Promotions visited our restaurant for lunch. It was the first time they experienced Croatian cuisine and we think we made a good impression!

They were particularly impressed by Restaurant Manager Ben who showed them hospitality like no one else can.

Best Food Junction writer Ekii Leslie paid our restaurant a visit a while ago and has published her review in the magazine. Best Food Junction even picked us as an Editor’s Choice!

Dubrovnik is about the passion of the proprietor for good food and drink. From the hand made pasta to the bread baked daily in wood fire oven, this passion demands perfection and authenticity in the culibary offerings. Dubrovnik… unabashedly traditional yet refreshingly different without the artifices of fusion.

A little while ago, Elaine Tan from Good Living magazine visited our restaurant and sampled our dishes. She concluded:

Dubrovnik reflects those sensibilities for good food without the fuss and pretence. By keeping to the owners’ and chef’s preference for authenticity over stylish fusion, Dubrovnik has represented European-Mediterranean cuisine well.
