When you go to Croatia, everyone always tries some of their grilled meats. Every menu we went to had some sort of grill menu, so we decided to go out to Restaurant Portun and try out a big plate of meat. This place had a sign that said “Best Grill in the Area” which had us sold. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, but we opted for outdoors as we wanted to enjoy the lovely evening weather. At Restaurant Portun we didn’t order a ton of different food, but we did EAT.
If Dann and I are traveling, we are often trying the Asian food we find. When walking around Old Town in Dubrovnik, we stumbled upon Silk. It looks like they have a few different locations in different cities, and we were quite excited to have some delicious food. We both sat in their rooftop terrace, as the weather was so nice, but they did have a small indoor area for seating as well.
Dann and I were out in the evening playing Pokemon Go and wanted to go out for dinner afterwards instead of getting groceries and making something! We decided to stop at The Hare Pub, which is a part of the McMullen pub chain. They run events like a weekly pub quiz and poker night, bringing some extra excitement into the venue. They also have a separate billiards area, lots of outdoor seating, and indoor dinning. We opted to eat inside as it was getting a little dark and late outside for us. When we went, they had both their standard menu and a smaller selection of Chef Recommendations as well, which worked as specials.
We drive by CoHo in Harlow often. It looks very similar in name and font to a French food chain, so we hadn’t taken the time to stop there, but this time we took the chance. On Saturday, it’s required that you pre-book, as they are super busy, so we went first thing on Sunday for lunch before heading out on a trip out of the country. The place is pretty simple and elegant in decoration – there are white tablecloths, menus clearly printed for that specific day, the staff is really attentive. It’s a very expensive feeling place to eat. CoHo is right on the river, and we even saw some swans swimming there before we entered.
When looking for somewhere to get lunch while in Milan, we wanted to get some pizza. Dann and I are hit and miss with pizzas, often not being impressed by the toppings they have as options in places we’ve previously been, so when we saw Slice Milano, we thought it looked a little different and fun. This is a pizza place that does pizza by the slice, where you can get a bunch of different slices instead of having to get a whole or half of a pizza. Their slices are quite large in size and feature a thicker crust, as they seem to be baking each individual slice that you order, to order.
