Obala
During our Croatian holiday in August 2023, we had two delightful meals at Obala restaurant. Located on the beautiful island of Lopud, this restaurant has always had a stellar reputation, and our return after four years only reinforced its charm.
When we walked into Obala Lopud, we were welcomed with open arms and friendly faces. The service was top-notch, and the staff made us feel right at home.
Our evening unfolded with a parade of dishes that truly embodied the essence of Adriatic cuisine. We kicked things off with a zucchini carpaccio. Those thinly sliced zucchinis, dressed in a medley of flavors, were the perfect appetizer.
As for our main courses, they were nothing short of spectacular. The seafood risotto stole the show, loaded with juicy shrimp, tender squid, and delectable fish. It was like a taste of the sea on a plate, and we couldn't get enough.
But the real star of the night was the oven-baked octopus, served in a classic style with roasted potatoes, sun-ripened tomatoes, and fragrant leeks. Every bite felt like a journey through Mediterranean flavors.
And let's not forget the wine selection! Obala Lopud's wine list was impressive, and we found the perfect pairings to complement our dishes, enhancing the overall experience.
We want to give a big shoutout to the fantastic team at Obala Lopud. Their dedication to quality and love for great food shines through in everything they do.
In short, our return visit to Obala was simply enchanting. The restaurant has upheld its high standards, and we had an unforgettable evening. If you ever find yourself on Lopud Island, make sure to swing by Obala Lopud – it's a foodie's paradise you won't want to miss.
Bon appétit, island style! 🍽️🌴
