“Heritage is a reflection of a persons past in the present, and our goal is to preserve at least one part for the future. Merging (Croatia’s) national culinary heritage with the globally popular streetfood concept, we want to contribute to the continuation and preserving of indigenous Croatian food products”, the eatery says.
