Fuliranje at Advent in Zagreb

Some Zagreb residents already have their favourite Advent places, and others want to explore them all, but everyone will tell you one thing: if you want to eat well on Zagreb’s famous Advent, you should go to Fuliranje.

This is not surprising when you know that the organiser, the creative agency Chicken or Egg, carefully selects the best and most creative talents of the gourmet scene every year.

Since its beginnings in 2012, Fuliranje has been a strong discovery and growth platform for many chefs and restaurants, as well as for the gastronomy scene in Zagreb. Fuliranje has been recognised as the best Advent destination by the Zagreb Tourist Board and featured on CNN Travel as the most interesting Advent event in Zagreb two years in a row.

As challenging as it may be, it seems that this year’s Fuliranje will be one of the best yet.

Just to name a few of the dishes offered by 17 charming huts on Strossmayer Square, so beautifully situated between Zrinjvac and the ice skating rink on Tomislav Square.

From already famous dishes and Fuliranje’s all-time favourites such as Picnic’s Different Sarma and Traditional Skradin Risotto, Palfi’s Buncek Burger, to Full Circle’s Chicken Marinated in Yogurt and Beer, then dozens of sausage varieties from chefs Mate Jankovic and Damir Tomljanovic, gourmet burgers by Ivan Pažanin, juicy buns and crispy tempura from Izakaya, Black Slavonian pork burritos and breaded cannelloni with salted cod by Michelin star chef Deni Srdoč, to Beg’s Plant-Based novelties such as Burek Sarma and Dan-dan chicken with mlinci, unsurpassed festive delicacies from Boogie Lab, local specialities and Advent surprises from Good Food and Pizza Social Club, irresistible Briocherie treats, innovative offerings from Rougemarin and Bistro&Pizzeria Public – everyone will easily find a favourite dish or two in Fuliranje this year.
