Good morning good morning guys.
We are currently in Hvar, Croatia and today we are searching for breakfast.
Yeah, we sure are.
It is a little bit late.
It is already ten thirty and we're both really hungry so before we do any sightseeing we
are going to go eat.
Alright a little bit of an ordeal this morning.
Oh my gosh.
At long last we are finally getting breakfast.
So this was mission impossible basically.
So we are visiting Hvar first week of November off-season.
Most people have already gone.
Yeah.
Because it is cold and whatever so we've been walking around town I would say for almost
an hour.
Yeah.
Trying to find a place that does food.
I think this was our fifth place that we tried.
Yeah.
And we finally found somewhere does breakfast.
Yeah.
Because most places were like oh we're only serving coffee or oh we're actually closed.
Um, so we were thinking of actually just going to a bakery.
Haha.
And doing a do it yourself breakfast at the harbor.
That was going to be our plan.
We were so close to doing that in fact.
Yeah.
But then we found this place.
It is called BB Club it is at the very end of the marina and yeah there are some people
out here.
We're sitting out in the sun.
We've just finished placing our order for breakfast.
Yeah.
We're going to eat here.
It is not going to be a typical Croatian breakfast because we haven't been able to find that
whatever it is.
This is a very International breakfast so you'll see once it arrives.
How are you feeling now that you have a cup of coffee in front of you.
Oh, I was worried we weren't going to find a place that had breakfast so I'm very happy.
And I get the regular the cappuccino.
It seems to be what I get most of the time.
My cappuccino of course, of course.
And you got a little cookie.
I did get a little cookie.
It is shaped like a little horseshoe.
Yep.
But let's try the coffee first.
The cappuccino until the food gets here.
Mmmm.
It is nice.
I find I don't need sugar with it so that is good.
And let's try the cookie.
Mmmm.
It is coated in icing sugar.
Oh, it is.
Yeah.
It is so good.
It tastes like an almond cookie to me.
A crumbly almond cookie.
It is really good.
Yum.
Nice start to the breakfast.
Alright, the food is here.
Cappuccinos are long gone.
Those were really really good.
But anyways I ordered myself Shakshuka which I seem to have whenever I have the opportunity.
So this is a Middle Eastern recipe.
I first had it in Israel like 3 or 4 years ago.
But anyways if you take a look here it is basically like these eggs cooked in like this
iron cast.
Yep.
Is it?
Um, with like a tomato based sauce.
A cast iron frying pan.
Cast iron that is what it is called.
Thank you Samuel.
Um.
Yeah and like usually you get this with a little bit of bread but it just came on its
own so just going in.
My hair is flying everywhere.
Oh my goodness.
It is time for a haircut.
And the sun is starting to peek through at our table.
Uh huh.
Mmmm.
Really nice.
Super hot.
Super super duper hot.
Mmmm.
But it is really tasty.
I'm going to let you try it next.
Alright, alright in he goes.
Oh, I just sprayed a whole bunch of it.
I know I've sprayed my arms and my clothes already.
Everytime I cut it it just flies everywhere.
Nice big bite.
I like that it is thick.
It is almost like as thick as like a lasagne or something.
Haha.
Mmmm.
What do you think?
Shakshuka.
Oh wow.
Very flavorful also quite spicy too.
I know.
Yeah.
It has got a real kick to it.
It does have a bit of a burn.
It has got a real kick to it so yeah this is a nice start to breakfast.
It is really good.
And now let's move on to your breakfast.
Yours looks really good too.
Okay.
Alright moving on to my main so when they asked what kind of toppings we have I said
give me everything.
That is the chef's special.
Everything.
So if I show you in here you can see that there is different kinds of peppers, it looks
like there is ham and it looks like there is some kind of a salami, onion, cheese.
It is jacked.
It is fully loaded.
Just the way I like it.
The jacked omelette.
Mmmm.
How is it?
It is really good.
Yeah?
Yeah, nice and salty.
That is the first thing that comes to mind.
Yeah.
Those meats are really salty.
Yeah.
Oh la lah.
It is a good start to breakfast and it comes with melon so you can kind of refresh your
palate with a slice of fruit.
Refresh your palate.
Nice.
In between bites.
Why not?
Let's you can try it now.
And you know what?
You're starting to get a bit of sunshine.
I know.
You're like a little vampire.
You're going to disintegrate.
It is just peeking over the building.
I'm going to have to move over to the corner here.
Hahaha.
Mmmmm.
Good stuff.
Okay.
In I go for the omelet as well.
Let's see what this is all about.
All about.
Mmmm.
Isn't that good?
Mmmhmm.
It is quite good.
But you know what would make it amazing over the top?
What?
Some jalapenos peppers in there.
Oh, yes.
Just chop those up and give it a nice real kick.
I'm just missing spicy food.
It has been a while since we had some really spicy food.
Yeah, we haven't been eating that spicy for a while now.
Yeah.
You're right.
I can't even remember the last place where we were having it consistently spicy foods.
I don't think Mediterranean food is really known for its spice to be honest.
No.
This is good.
And now I think we should move on to dessert.
Yes, we should.
So Samuel's breakfast before he disintegrates.
Yeah, I'm I can see you staring at the sun I am disintegrating.
I am disintegrating.
Oh my gosh.
I'm in full on vampire mode.
I'm actually going to put that on right now.
Oh, you brought it.
Good.
I did bring it.
Alright.
Baseball cap and sunglasses.
Baseball cap on.
So I'm going to try the pancakes over here.
Yeah.
They come with nutella, chocolate and also with walnuts.
So it should be really good.
Mmmm.
Look at that chocolate.
It does look good.
Mmmm.
Oh melty and gooey.
Oh yeah.
This is perfect because we're getting our two salty breakfast mains and then we have
this basically for dessert.
A little something sweet.
Yeah, we're really hungry.
Like it is only eleven thirty now so this is our brunch.
And we need a meal that can fill us up and sustain us for all of the exploring we're
going to do afterwards.
Yeah, we're going to do some hiking as well.
And it comes with kiwi and pineapple and then also pineapple I thought it was orange.
Also some raisins.
No, it is pineapple.
I wasn't sure what it was either.
Looks good.
Super tasty.
Do da loo doo.
Last thing to try.
Pancakes.
I'm just going to go for a big bite.
I think I just got some ham in it.
Ham and nutella pancakes with shakshuka sauce.
That is a mammoth bite.
Mammoth.
Mmmm.
I'm telling you.
Oh wow.
Isn't that good?
I love nutella.
I know.
Mmmm.
Nutella for the win right at the end.
So after all of that saltiness you need a bit of sweet.
Also, I keep calling these pancakes but they are more like crepes.
Yeah.
They're quite thin.
Thin crepes.
This is really nice.
Yeah.
Great way to start the morning.
I know.
Or mid-morning.
And to think we weren't even sure if we'd be having breakfast or not.
I know there was a moment there where we were like oh no.
No breakfast in Hvar.
A big moment of doubt.
This was basically the last chance.
So yeah, we're just going to finish enjoying breakfast and yeah.
Yeah, basically yeah.
Alright Mister we just paid the bill.
Sure did.
So the breakfast came to 175 Kuna which is 23 Euros so that included 2 cappuccinos and
3 breakfast mains.
And yeah, I mean it is not cheap we're paying tourist prices on a touristy island but it
sure was good and we were just very appreciative to have actually found a place where we could
have breakfast.
Yes.
Somewhere to eat at long last.
Yeah, so we feel very satisfied and now we're ready to go explore.
So we're going to do just that.
Ciao ciao.
