Finding a place for dinner in the seaside town of Split, Croatia, is not difficult to do, but finding a true representation of Croatian cuisine takes a bit of extra detective work. Tucked away at the base of Marjan Hill sits a tiny restaurant that advertises itself as a buffet, but the table service performed by the effervescent waiters is anything but the typical buffet-style restaurant.
The comprehensive menu at Fife Restaurant features a varied representation of Croatian cuisine from succulent seafood to roasted vegetables, served with copious Croatian wine options. Black risotto, lightly fried calamari and gnocchi with a white wine sauce are just a few of the options available and served in generously sized portions.
Patio diners sit side by side at picnic tables that encourage communal consumption of food and drink. Wine is served in one of three vessel sizes from individual glasses to carafes to share.
The colorful servers weave in and out of the tables, suggesting favorites and making a few friends along the way. With budget-friendly prices and more-than-generous portion sizes, try to arrive at Fife early as locals and tourists alike seek the deals and experience.
A dining experience at Fife exposes visitors to the crossroads of Croatian hospitality and some of the region´s freshest seafood.
