So it is time for actually lunch and dinner because it is the middle of the afternoon.
Yeah.
So we didn't really have a proper lunch today let's be honest.
We were just kind of snacking at home before we left.
Yeah.
And we've been filming most of the day so we've worked up an enormous appetite.
We are so ready to eat.
Oh yes.
So we have a favorite restaurant in the city.
Yeah.
This is going to be our third time going there.
Yeah.
I don't know the name.
I can't pronounce it but we'll let you know once we get there.
And yeah the food here is amazing.
We already know what we're going to get so we're all set.
So okay it would appear that the name is Konoba Skoblar so in we go.
In we go.
Starting things off with the wine then.
And we've become quite familiar with this one.
Yesterday we were trying to figure out what hints can we smell and taste in here so let's
try once again.
I like how they give us a nice generous portion too.
I know that is a big glass of wine.
No stinginess.
I think that is 200 mL.
So the hints I believe, same as yesterday, it is the same wine.
I was going with black cherries and what was the other one?
I think you said raisins.
Raisins.
Yes.
I said black cherries.
I think it has a bit of currants.
Currants.
Oh, I'm not a fan of currants but now that you mention it.
Haha.
Is that in there?
But yeah, this is a great glass of red.
Little fly.
Wants to go for a swim in my wine.
Cheers.
Time for me to try it.
Samuel Jeffery sipping on wine.
Aaah.
What does he think?
Yeah, this is having red wine with pasta is like an integral part of our meals now.
Like we don't even think about it.
Yeah.
We demand it.
Yeah, where is the wine?
And it has been nice having kind of slow food to go along with our slower pace of travel.
Yeah.
Because we've had a really busy year and we've kind of intentionally chosen some smaller
places to end off the year.
Yeah.
And this is been great having nice slow meals with wine and slower destinations.
Yes.
I would agree 100 percent.
Okay guys the food is finally here and no surprises here.
We've ordered the truffle gnocchi.
This is our third time having this dish and we have not grown tired of it.
It is so good.
So it comes in a cream sauce with truffles.
It is wonderful taken to a new level.
Yeah.
So you've got like the truffles in the sauce and then you have the real truffles on top
and then you have like the grated cheese.
It is just amazing.
This is so good that I could be having a really bad day and if I came here and had this that
would make it all better.
Yeah.
Haha.
Basically.
This is so so wonderful.
Oh my gosh.
So Sam is going in, oh you better believe it.
One of his favorite culinary experiences.
I'm going to make sure I get some truffle.
Oh yeah.
You get the real deal.
Take it for a massive swim in the sauce here.
Look at that just drowning in sauce and a little piece of gnocchi.
Mmmmm.
Wow.
Oh!
It is always wow.
Woah.
It is just so good.
So creamy, so flavorful and just cooked to perfection and it is just yeah.
I just want to eat this slowly and savor every bite.
Yeah.
I don't want to eat it quick because I want to make this last.
And that is rare for Sam.
Yeah.
Sam usually shovels in the food.
It is all about having it slow.
Yeah.
Just can't get enough of truffles.
I know.
We are hooked on truffles.
Haha.
How are we going to survive.
We are not going to be getting too many more in the future I don't think.
Enjoy it while we have the chance right?
Exactly.
Okay so in we go for dish number two.
Yes.
What are we having?
So we are having black risotto and that comes with cuttlefish.
Cuttlefish.
And my gosh that ink is something else.
Look at that.
I'm leaving smears on the side.
You can see that.
I have never seen a cuttlefish in my life.
I have no idea what it looks like.
I feel like I should 'Google' it but maybe after the meal.
Let's not ruin it.
Oh my gosh it is so good.
Yeah, again it is really creamy and also the cuttlefish is so tender.
It almost melts in your mouth.
I thought it would be more chewy but it is not.
And yeah, it is great to have a second pasta.
It is like they really complement each other because their flavors are so different.
Yeah.
Good stuff.
Black risotto here we go.
Let's do this.
Let's make it happen.
This makes me think of halloween actually.
Having black food on my plate.
I got some cuttlefish in there.
It is super tender.
I know it really is.
You're right.
It does melt in your mouth.
I think it almost looks like squid right?
Is cuttlefish like a squid?
Yeah, it has that kind of a little bit of that consistency.
This is a lot more tender though.
Yeah, it is far more tender for sure.
Oh and this comes in a white wine sauce.
I'm not sure if we mentioned that already.
But there is wine in here.
I don't believe we have.
Haha.
Mmmm.
It is good.
But you know what?
I'm in love with that gnocchi.
Haha.
That is really good.
We're going to be fighting over that.
Yeah, this is good but that is like amazing.
That is outstanding.
Like unforgettable.
Oh yeah.
Okay, so initially we were planning to share one dessert because that was a lot of pasta
but then the waiter came over and Sam was like I'll have one of each.
So now he said do you want panna cotta do you want cheese cake and I was like I can't
decide.
So let's get both.
Yeah.
So tada.
As you do.
Both of them have arrived.
As you do.
I'm going to sample them and decide which one I like best and then Sam is going to get
the one that I don't like as much but who knows.
Maybe I'll love them both.
You probably will.
Mmmm.
It comes in like a tart berry sauce.
Yeah, it is tart.
I thought it was raspberry at first but it just like the little small red berries I forget
what they're called but it is really good.
I do like this but we also have cheesecake to contend with.
Mmmhmm.
And check that out.
Like it has got like a thick layer of graham crackers get some sauce too.
Let's see which is best.
Mmmm.
What is best?
Oh my gosh.
I love cheesecake.
So cheesecake for the win?
This was so good too.
Like they're both really good but man.
Okay let's be decisive here.
Okay, I'll choose cheesecake.
Haha.
I choose cheesecake.
Cheesecake is number one.
Haha.
Alright alright how are you feeling after that lunch / dinner?
Bulging belly at the moment.
Oh my.
Yeah.
So that was 243 Kuna which was 32 Euros total.
Yes.
Two glasses of wine, two mains and two desserts.
Now it is time to crawl into bed and pass out.
Haha.
Anyways, that was an awesome place.
Highly recommend it and yeah I'm so done.
See you guys next time.
Bye.
