Dubrovnik

Occupying an elegant roof terrace in an Old Town alleyway that is by no means busy with tourists, this Michelin-listed establishment is one of the city’s finest places for an extravagant meal. It is also quite expensive, but the creativity of the cuisine and the attention-to-detail service make it more than worthwhile. Meat and fish mains are exquisitely inventive and are matched by the starters and sweets – it’s well worth coming ready to eat several courses or splash out on one of the many-course tasting menues. Superb all round.
