About this tour
This session pairs a Gruž market morning with a Dalmatian cooking class in a home kitchen. The camera follows shopping at the market, the boats unloading at the Gruž harbour, and then the kitchen itself as black risotto or a fish stew comes together from what was bought that morning. It closes at a table set with rozata and local wine.
The call opens with a sound check and moves in the same order as the morning itself, market to harbour to kitchen to table, with questions taken throughout rather than saved for the end. A written version of the recipe goes out once the call closes.
This suits anyone who wants to see where Dalmatian cooking actually starts, at the market and the harbour, rather than just the finished plate. It also suits someone planning to cook the same dish at home and wanting to watch it made first.
Included
- Live video session with a local guide
- A close look at the dishes and where locals buy them
- A short list of places and dishes to try later
Not included
- Food and drinks shown on camera
- Travel to the city
