The catch of the day in Dubrovnik.
A fishing boat in Primošten.
It’s funny, but even though Stockholm is on the Baltic Sea, I don’t think of it as a seaside, fresh fish eating town, but rather a salmon eating town. And of course, with herring, caviar and shrimp thrown in. I know, it’s all fish, so don’t tell me I’m all wrong about Stockholm. And I do eat all of the above mentioned fish here a lot. It’s good. But what I don’t seem to eat here is fresh grilled fish for some reason.
Seafood risotto in Primošten.
As we were in coastal Dalmatia – mostly in Primošten and Dubrovnik – fresh seafood was featured in most restaurants that we went to. Sole, John Dory, sea bass, octopus, squid, lobster, mussels, oysters and clams were all on the menu, as was something they liked to describe as small fish – anchovies. Most of the time, fish was grilled or broiled in olive oil, herbs and garlic. Often, a fish pate was served as a complimentary appetizer. Easy Italian cooking was also prominent, including risottos and pizzas, in particular. It was all pretty tasty.
