It is always nice to see Croatians return from the diaspora to make a go of living in the Homeland, but even more so when you meet a couple of brothers who are not only making it work, but loving what they do AND making a great addition to the Zagreb gourmet scene.

Meet Oliver and Nikola who are enjoying a great start to their restaurant-owning journey at Bistro 96 at Maksimirska 96, where they are joined by the owner of Zagreb’s first Michelin Star restaurant, Noel – Oliver and Mario used to work together in a 3-star Michelin restaurant in the UK. A look behind the scenes, and if you have been missing French onion soup, as I have, watch on…

  1. Good to see people returning and hopefully taking away Pelinkovac’s excuse for flooding Croatia with migrants ( yes the name is deliberate not a mistake, actually an insult to a good drink) I’m a bit confused though, a huge portion of Croatia’s GDP comes from tourism and most tourists go to a country for either its climate or it’s culture including its food, I’m sure eating french food might give a bit of variety to locals but I don’t know if it’s what tourists want, well except us stupid Brits who go to Spain then seek out the English bar with the English breakfast 🤷🤷 I definitely think Croatia could do with more restaurants or even Konobar that concentrate on traditional home food instead of the almost identical menus that most have especially in Dalmacija. Good luck guys
