Kornati - Croatian tastes in Graz




After passing the lovely light blue house of the Croatian restaurant Kornati several times this week, and every time pointing out how wonderful place for dinner it probably would be, we finally decided to actually step in and try.

As this was rather an impulse decision and we did not have a reservation, all the tables on the terrace were unfortunately already taken. However, the friendly waitress found us a nice table next to the open windows on the second floor. In fact, it felt almost like we were sitting outside. (And in addition, there was no cigarette smoke!)




The upstairs was wonderfully decorated with different kind of lamps, tables and chairs. Together with the lightened candles and flowers on the tables, they created cozy and peaceful atmosphere. We were lucky to have the whole upstairs for ourselves, which of course made the evening a bit more special.

Most of the dishes on the menu sounded very delicious, and we really had hard time trying to decide what to try. Finally both of us chose seafood, as by far Croatian seafood has never let us down. And this time wasn't an exception either; the seafood stew was absolutely worth tasting and the tuna steak definitely the best one I've ever had! The truffle-potato puree served with the tuna had slightly too much truffle for my taste though. But at least now we for sure know how truffles taste.



As it should, delicious food was accompanied with good drinks. I got to taste the Weißer Muskateller wine for the first time, and I would certainly order it another time too.
