As someone from Zagreb, I really appreciate your other videos more now. It might not make sense, but knowing how much research went into this one (cause these places are not your typical tourist spots) make me think you do the same for other cities too. Thanks for literally chasing the plate.
😍 this has made our day Mario! Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. Sometimes we find it hard to put across how we really are eating at the more local spots everywhere we go. It’s easy for us to say but unless you know the cities we’re in you might be sceptical (if that makes sense?) so it’s awesome to have a local acknowledge this 🤗 We had the best time in Zagreb- everyone was so welcoming and friendly and we ate so well 🤤 Thanks again mate! Cheers, Sheena
I’m half English half Croatian and I want to say thanks for actually choosing food we eat for once. Most other youtubers use unknown things even we don’t know about

as a Croatian from the south,,DALMATIA watching this video i am for sure going to visit some of these places,,,very simple GRANDMOTHERS COOKING STYLE,,,WITH ALL THE LOVE SHE CAN PUT IN THE FOOD
I make Grah about once a week all through winter, a massive pot. Each child (so there are no fights) gets their own smoked hock (i use hock, smoked ribs are harder to come by in rural Australia). If there is any left over the next day, i just heat it up again and add carrots and pasta in it...it becomes another hearty, filling meal and this way nothing goes to waste. I also make a similar dish that is not so common, its cabbage and potato with either ribs, smoked hock or even just kransky's ....kids love it, with fresh crusty bread. Also, if we have left over mash potato, the next day i fry up onion and mix it in with the potato. you wouldnt know it was mash from the day before and it is delicious....waste not, want not. It was great seeing how much you enjoyed such simple, rustic, traditional Croatian dishes...thank you.
Hi Hope, thanks for watching and commenting! Oh my gosh each kid gets their own hock?!

I'm glad you had čobanac! It's a delicious thing, especially when slow-cooked outside in a cast iron pot, hung from a tripod, over a nice wood fire. Three meats are usually pork, beef/veal and some game like venison or boar meat. There is also Fiš Paprikaš, aka Fish Paprikash, which is quite similar, usually a few kinds of river fish in a paprika based stew, quite spicy, served alongside homemade pasta.
Oh we can only imagine how good it must taste in that kind of environment 😍 hope we can experience it one day. Hope we can return to eat more one day soon. We didn’t manage to eat fish paprikash so that’s a good enough excuse I reckon! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate Yes fiš and and sarma are very nice reason, as far as river fish food goes, do check out village called Davor. They are quite known for having the experience in that department.
Bean stew for the win! Truthfully, it all looked amazing, but there’s just something so satisfying about a slow-cooked pot of beans with a bit of smoked bacon. All day, every day. 😋😘
👊 totally agree- super hearty and comforting right?! That smoked pork rib on the side was the icing on the cake! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one Michael 😘 Hope you’re having a lovely week! Cheers, Sheena
in romania we add the smoked meat in the bean dish from the beginning so everything takes that flavour. i think all east european countries have this dish ( and many others) in variation
😍😍😍 so cut the rib up at the start and add it to the beans? That makes sense 😄 We ate another bean dish this afternoon but it didn’t have any meat in it- we both loved the smoked meat version like in this video. Thanks for watching and commenting Alina. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate at home we use sausages, cause we have that all year round. during winter it's easier to use "afumatura" = the practical translation is "smokeys" and is the pork meat that we buy smoked. usually the rib meat or the "ciolan" = leg ham
It's the same in Croatia as well. You add the smoked ham or sausages etc. go give the beans more flavor. Not sure why in this video they have it separately but ok. Edit; I just realized, the smoked rib was actually cooked with the beans but taken out and served separately. So it's actually how that restaurant serves it. Usually at home you wouldn't do that, you'd leave it in the bean stew.
@@joekerr9197 This was probably done for ease of consumation. Cleaner for someone going to work or whatever, cause bones are clunky, you could spoil your clothes with the stew. They made the wise choice with that.
It really is! Our time in Zagreb only served to whet our appetite. Hope we can see more do the country soon. Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena
I’m Australian born Croatian and you guys are making me hungry and I’ve just had dinner. Quality food you won’t find better no matter where you travel.
Would love to get back to Croatia and see more of the country! We had a great time in Zagreb. Such comforting, hearty food- it was a delicious trip. Thanks for watching and commenting, so glad you enjoyed the video mate. Cheers, Sheena

It was such an awesome day of eating! Hope you get to visit one day soon mate. We’d love to get back to see more of the country one day too. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
the ribs/hock/ even kransky sausages (anything smoked pork) are cooked with the beans and then taken out before the roo is added (roo is what makes the stew thick, its fried oil,flour and Hungarian paprika)...sometimes the pork is shredded and then added back to the pot of stew once its done, or some people just have it on the side....
I don't like walking in it but I do love rain. Great footage! *_grah_* - I'm sure it's a faux pas but I would have stripped all the meat off the bone and added it to the beans immediately. Both individually looked super tasty though. *_boiled beef_* - So glad you selected. Gotta have simple foods regularly I feel. A cheese plate and bread is my favorite. Poached salmon with steamed rice is delicious. Spaghetti with olive oil, garlic and cracked black is perfect. Boiled beef and potatoes? Sounds great to me. *_burek_* - Had Bosnian style (in the U.S.) which was nothing like this version. Love when you introduce me to dishes I've never tried. *_cordon bleu_* - I don't eat a lot of veal (I do when it's expressly indicated that good practices are used) but have had lots of chicken cordon bleu. So many different flavors that work well together, eh? Excellent quick visit to Zagreb. It's not easy to represent an area in just a couple of videos but you guys always seem to knock it out of the park. 👍
Thanks so much Tosh- that’s really kind of you to say. We’re spending about a week in each place at the moment and that’s super fast travel for us 😆 Not a faux pax at all re the grah as another subscriber on here just mentioned that that’s the way they do it in Romania so I’m sure the same goes. Will have to do that next time for sure- it makes sense! The way they crushed the burek was fantastic- we’ve never had it served that way before. Utterly delicious. We are finding so much veal on the menus here- more than we’ve ever seen travelling anywhere else. It’s quite interesting. I’m going to look into what you mentioned about the practices around slaughtering. Thanks for watching this one mate, so glad you enjoyed this very quick series! Cheers, Sheena
It's not surprising that veal is plentiful, Sheena since there are better practices in Europe. The U.K. outlawed calf "crating" a long time ago and the E.U. countries followed in the mid 2000s. It's been a slow adoption in the U.S. (states act independently) but a country ban on crating went into effect a few years ago I believe. The other issue is the diet. Most calves are fed milk only which produces the desired light veal. But this leads to nutrition deficiencies which require antibiotics. But to my original comment, I've seen some menus state that their veal is raised properly thus resulting in a darker meat. Ossobuco is one of my all-time favorites. I seem to have a lot of all-time favorites. 😀
Hope we can return one day and visit other regions and cities 😍 Thanks for watching and watching this is karla, hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena
I can't help but notice that your timing was impeccable, avoiding the earthquake that happened less than 2 weeks later than this was filmed. I assume that by that time you were already out of Zagreb and Croatia altogether.
We had left by then ugowar. We read about it after it happened in the news. Just terrible! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this episode. We’d love to return to Croatia one day and explore more! Cheers, Sheena
the foods you tried are some of the most popular traditional foods, but there is a lot more. if u ever visit croatia or any neighbouring countries, definitely try: ćevapi, pršut, sarma.
There’s so much more! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoy our videos from around the region! Hope we can return to Croatia one day soon to explore more. Cheers, Sheena 😄

reci mi po čemu je "Zagrebačka šnicla" tradicionalno jelo Hrvata? Pravi naziv je (ako ne znaš) "Karađorđeva šnicla" i osmislio je Milovan - Mića Stojanović, glavni kuvar restorana "Grof" u Beogradu 1956.godine a ime je dobila po Voždu Karađorđu.

You guys are always lovely! Thank you for sharing an experience that I cannot be easily done. Your videos are always great, but this series is even more satisfying. The foods you introduce are very new to me. I put Croatia on my bucket list! I also explore food and post it on my TH-cam channel. I learn a lot from your videos.

Lol Sheena the couple behind you while you were eating the burek were priceless. With all your mmmmmms Im not sure they knew what you were doing exactly. Great video as always
🤣🤣🤣 it’s such a change filming in countries where there are less people and the restaurants and shops are quieter- we must get so many strange looks 😝 Thanks for watching this one Elaine- so glad you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
It looks like there are definitely influences of Austrian and Swedish food in there but also a little Irish. It is probably just me but I'm reminded of traditional Irish home cooked food. Good honest homely food offers so much more than your fine dining restaurants. It is food of the soul
Influences from all over the show 😍 We totally agree Catherine- it’s homely food like this that you really crave and that satisfies like nothing else! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena
Always amazing how much there is to learn or at least memory to refresh about my old home! The kitchen influenced greatly from the surrounding neighbors. Maybe also vice-versa here and there. When friends ask me aboout Croatian cuisine, I used to tell them that I believe the best is to basically imagine Austrian/Hungarian/ Italian/ Turkish/ Greek food available at all times and all places throughout Croatia. Just given different names and combinations. But I am the simple type of guy who believes that Italian Tagiatelle is basically the same food as Tibetan Momo and am not able to distinguish the taste of Spaghetti from Ravioli and Penne. Greetings from Switzerland. You guys are doing awesome!
😆😆😆😆😆 Do you miss Croatia mate? We loved visiting and hope we can get back to see more of the country one day soon. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoy our other Zagreb video. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlatesure, at times I do miss the country a lot. But my true home has now been Switzerland way too long, and I love it! Ok, basically Swiss salaries are a powerful argument that enables one to travel a little more than the average earthling. Maybe it's because real estate is so hard to get so that average people simply give up ob it entirely and spend what's left on trips and lifestyle b.s.. Love to pass by or spend some time jumping almost randomly from place to place when in Croatia, then love to leave the country as well. Every single spot on earth must have its up and downsides. Keep enjoying the fruits of the country for me. Looking forward to your next Zagreb vid as well!
Loved loved Zagreb Funny story we had a flat tires (wheels) on our luggage. We found a Samsonite luggage store and repair. We dropped our bags off and the luggage guy recommended that restaurant (Pri Zvoncu) Looked it up on Google maps sure enough it is the same restaurant. Watching this video last night we both said that looks like where we ate. Sure enough it was. It had good food!
🙌🙌🙌 it was such a cosy restaurant wasn’t it Linda? The food was delicious. Hope this video brought back good memories of your time in Zagreb. We loved the city too! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
😄😄😄 it’s our jam! It’s what excites us the most- the recipes that have stood the test of time and for good reason! We ate so well in Zagreb. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
The burem kinda looks like a kugel or our german lazy man cheese buttons,that smoky bean soup an pounded veal.yum .makes my mouth water...love potatoes...
Potato anything I’m a fan of Joan. The ones cooked with the onions in that last meal were amazing- couldn’t get over the flavour! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Cheers, Sheena
Very interesting to see the borek served all crushed up that way. We’ve only had it served by the slice or from an entire pie. Can imagine it having a nice mix of the textures when served this way
Even though it's currently 10-45 pm in England and I was watching in bed....Thanks Thomas, that ham and cheese thingy looked so good, my oven is now heating up, cheap crappy pizza on the way!
So glad you enjoyed this one Tanya! It was such a great day of comfort food eating 😍 Thanks for watching and commenting- hope you are having a lovely week 😘 Cheers, Sheena

Omg 5cats 2kids, those potatoes were out of this world! I need to recreate them at home- they were so intensely flavoursome 🤤 Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Burek is definitely comfort food...I prefer to get the one that is not chopped up like the one you had....instead they come out in circle and just get cut in triangles like pizza and you can eat it like a sandwich....
"Kod Šime", you were even in my neighbourhood. Funny to think about it. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. Good choices of places to eat at. Wondering how you came about them.
😍😍😍😍 it was a great spot! We love eating at local spots and exploring suburbs away from the tourist crowds wherever we travel so we do a load of research before we decide where to film and what places to include 😄 Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
You guys always find the best stuff. Nice stew there. Smoky-flavored stews make the best stews. Pastry with salty cheese (bureka-style) is such a treat.
😄 thank you Bernard! We totally agree- that stew packed a real punch. So meaty and flavoursome. Thanks for watching and commenting on this video, hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Sheena
That cordon bleu type thing was actually almost the same as what i had in Montenegro, also served with tartar sauce. I really wish i could remember what it was called, Podgorica something or other. it is considered a local dish to podgorica but montenegro is right next door to croatia so it makes sense
It’s a damn tasty dish right?! Wish we’d make it to Montenegro! We were supposed to travel all around the region but the pandemic stopped us in our tracks. Hope we can get back that way soon. Thanks for watching Ben! Hope the video brought back happy memories of your travels in that area! Cheers, Sheena
As always, you being quality content to us always, the food looks sensational, that cheese and pasty that you ate Shena looks,so good, I need to try that 😍😍😍
🤤🤤🤤 it was fantastic Angie! I could totally understand why the shop was so busy- truly delicious. Thanks for watching and for your lovely comment 🥰 Cheers, Sheena
Great video! It's really nice you actually chose to try "everyday" food instead of the fancy dishes people usually go for. I'm glad you liked it! :) Useless fact ;) - those potatoes with onions are made by cooking potatoes and then frying them in a pan on previously well sauted onions. They are called "restani krumpir". It is really hard to tell what is actually real Croatian traditional food since it has been influenced by surrounding cuisines - Austrian & Hungarian (esp in the North), Italian (esp. in coastal areas) and Bosnian (Turkish).
Not useless at all Petra! We tried our hand at recreating that dish as we loved it so much so am going to use your tip when we make it again next time! Thank you 😍 So happy you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

Great, you actually visited the restaurants ordinary people go to. Only one remark, in Zvonce you should have had the rumpsteak. And you have missed the Amfora, on the market just above the place you had the burek - simple sea food. Nice.

in romania we add the smoked meat in the bean dish from the beginning so everything takes that flavour. i think all east european countries have this dish ( and many others) in variation
😍😍😍 so cut the rib up at the start and add it to the beans? That makes sense 😄 We ate another bean dish this afternoon but it didn’t have any meat in it- we both loved the smoked meat version like in this video. Thanks for watching and commenting Alina. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate at home we use sausages, cause we have that all year round. during winter it's easier to use "afumatura" = the practical translation is "smokeys" and is the pork meat that we buy smoked. usually the rib meat or the "ciolan" = leg ham
It's the same in Croatia as well. You add the smoked ham or sausages etc. go give the beans more flavor. Not sure why in this video they have it separately but ok. Edit; I just realized, the smoked rib was actually cooked with the beans but taken out and served separately. So it's actually how that restaurant serves it. Usually at home you wouldn't do that, you'd leave it in the bean stew.
Bruh there is smoked meat already there
@@joekerr9197 This was probably done for ease of consumation. Cleaner for someone going to work or whatever, cause bones are clunky, you could spoil your clothes with the stew. They made the wise choice with that.
Croatia is a beautiful & stunning place.
It really is! Our time in Zagreb only served to whet our appetite. Hope we can see more do the country soon. Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena
Do visit, Zadar, Dubrovnik. Game of thrones set etc.
Wow great 🙏🏻🇭🇷 pozdrav iz Zagreba ☺️
Thanks so much for watching this one. Such a great food day! Cheers, Thomas 😀

Hope we can return soon! Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
I’m Australian born Croatian and you guys are making me hungry and I’ve just had dinner. Quality food you won’t find better no matter where you travel.
Would love to get back to Croatia and see more of the country! We had a great time in Zagreb. Such comforting, hearty food- it was a delicious trip. Thanks for watching and commenting, so glad you enjoyed the video mate. Cheers, Sheena

Thomas, I absolutely loved you reactions to food. Going there soon and looking forward to it even more now seeing all this yummy food. Thank you!
Awesome bro! You’re going to eat so well- thanks for watching this one 😄 Cheers, Thomas
My mouth is watering- looks so good.
A delicious day of comfort food that’s for sure! Thanks for watching Frank! Cheers, Sheena
Damn that looks so good. Just started learning Croatian language, hope to visit some day
It was such an awesome day of eating! Hope you get to visit one day soon mate. We’d love to get back to see more of the country one day too. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
i'm catching up now on your Croatia series!! cheers!!!
Thanks mate. Loved filming there. Enjoy the videos. Cheers, Thomas 😀
Very good, jako dobro😋👌
Thanks for watching. Cheers, Thomas 😀
You must got to Bačvica! AMAZING food there in Zagreb
We will have to return for sure! Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
I happy that your Here and im Also croatian and we Also make our own food
We loved our time filming there. Thanks very much for watching. Cheers, Thomas 😀
lovely video, such delicious food they have there
Thanks for watching Chef Cath- very hearty and comforting food indeed. Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate cheers and looking forward to more exciting videos
Hvala sto ste dosli u nase mjesto
Thanks for watching and commenting mate! It was such a great day of eating. Cheers, Sheena
Boiling beef with cooking potatoes goes with red tomato sauce.. tipical Zagreb old lunch
Delicious! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
That smoked rib immediately caught my attention - can imagine how well it would go with that bean soup
It added so much depth 🤤 Such a great meal. Thanks for watching and commenting guys, hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena
the ribs/hock/ even kransky sausages (anything smoked pork) are cooked with the beans and then taken out before the roo is added (roo is what makes the stew thick, its fried oil,flour and Hungarian paprika)...sometimes the pork is shredded and then added back to the pot of stew once its done, or some people just have it on the side....
Very nice! Greetings from Zadar! 😊
Thanks so much for watching and commenting mate! So happy you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
I don't like walking in it but I do love rain. Great footage!
*_grah_* - I'm sure it's a faux pas but I would have stripped all the meat off the bone and added it to the beans immediately. Both individually looked super tasty though.
*_boiled beef_* - So glad you selected. Gotta have simple foods regularly I feel. A cheese plate and bread is my favorite. Poached salmon with steamed rice is delicious. Spaghetti with olive oil, garlic and cracked black is perfect. Boiled beef and potatoes? Sounds great to me.
*_burek_* - Had Bosnian style (in the U.S.) which was nothing like this version. Love when you introduce me to dishes I've never tried.
*_cordon bleu_* - I don't eat a lot of veal (I do when it's expressly indicated that good practices are used) but have had lots of chicken cordon bleu. So many different flavors that work well together, eh?
Excellent quick visit to Zagreb. It's not easy to represent an area in just a couple of videos but you guys always seem to knock it out of the park. 👍
Thanks so much Tosh- that’s really kind of you to say. We’re spending about a week in each place at the moment and that’s super fast travel for us 😆 Not a faux pax at all re the grah as another subscriber on here just mentioned that that’s the way they do it in Romania so I’m sure the same goes. Will have to do that next time for sure- it makes sense! The way they crushed the burek was fantastic- we’ve never had it served that way before. Utterly delicious. We are finding so much veal on the menus here- more than we’ve ever seen travelling anywhere else. It’s quite interesting. I’m going to look into what you mentioned about the practices around slaughtering. Thanks for watching this one mate, so glad you enjoyed this very quick series! Cheers, Sheena
It's not surprising that veal is plentiful, Sheena since there are better practices in Europe. The U.K. outlawed calf "crating" a long time ago and the E.U. countries followed in the mid 2000s. It's been a slow adoption in the U.S. (states act independently) but a country ban on crating went into effect a few years ago I believe. The other issue is the diet. Most calves are fed milk only which produces the desired light veal. But this leads to nutrition deficiencies which require antibiotics. But to my original comment, I've seen some menus state that their veal is raised properly thus resulting in a darker meat. Ossobuco is one of my all-time favorites. I seem to have a lot of all-time favorites. 😀
awesome you covered all regional differences of food throughout croatia. i visited zagreb, split and dubrovnik and all are quite different.
Hope we can return one day and visit other regions and cities 😍 Thanks for watching and watching this is karla, hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena
I can't help but notice that your timing was impeccable, avoiding the earthquake that happened less than 2 weeks later than this was filmed. I assume that by that time you were already out of Zagreb and Croatia altogether.
We had left by then ugowar. We read about it after it happened in the news. Just terrible! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this episode. We’d love to return to Croatia one day and explore more! Cheers, Sheena
the foods you tried are some of the most popular traditional foods, but there is a lot more. if u ever visit croatia or any neighbouring countries, definitely try: ćevapi, pršut, sarma.
There’s so much more! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoy our videos from around the region! Hope we can return to Croatia one day soon to explore more. Cheers, Sheena 😄
reci mi po čemu je "Zagrebačka šnicla" tradicionalno jelo Hrvata? Pravi naziv je (ako ne znaš) "Karađorđeva šnicla" i osmislio je Milovan - Mića Stojanović, glavni kuvar restorana "Grof" u Beogradu 1956.godine a ime je dobila po Voždu Karađorđu. Nema veze ako nisi znao, jelo je tu da svi uživamo u njemu. Prijatno i svako dobro
@komentiraš a ne znaš koja je razlika između zagrebačkog i karađorđeve šnicle.
Sada sam gladan..Thnx chasing a plate.Great video glad you enjoyed it.
We loved everything we ate 11an- such hearty, wonderful food. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoy what we have coming up on the channel. Cheers, Sheena

Very hearty and satisfying! Thanks for watching JR Fritz! Hope you’re having a great weekend mate. Cheers, Sheena
What a satisfying video! That bean soup sounds wonderful, and the veal 'cordon bleu' looked and sounded just amazing. You're the best!
😍 so happy you liked it MsKestrela! It was such a great day of eating- comfort food for the win! Thomas is pretty much doing a Balkan cordon bleu tour- he’s eating it in every city we visit 😂 Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
Come and visit Bulgaria and its food. You will be surprised as well.
We’d love to get there one day! Thanks for watching 😄 Cheers, Sheena
If you haven't subscribed, you are missing out on some of the best and interesting places in the world...but off the beaten path! These two beautiful souls just know how to find the most incredible local food, unique and education...and sometimes humorous. Loved watching Thomas tuck into that bean soup...just beautiful food in this series! Love it!!! Chasing A Plate never disappoints!!! Love and safe travels you two...always!!!!
🥰 wow, we’re blown away! Thank you for the hugely generous words Jo. It’s such a joy being able to share these food cultures with you all. This was such a jam packed day of comfort food- we had such a blast visiting this spots. That bean stew was SO flavoursome- neither of us could get over it.

😆😆😍😍 it must be! We’re from New Zealand- we had the best time in Zagreb- it was such a chilled out city. Hope we can return to see more of Croatia one day soon. Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate if you return don't just go to Zagreb... try to go in "Slavonia" "Dalmatia" or in "Hrvatsko Zagorje"
wowwwwww.... croatia foods now !!! what a greats foods... LOVE SOOOOO MUCH... thanks guys !!!
So glad you enjoyed the video mate! Such a great day of comfort food eating 🤤 Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
I love my city. Glad you had a nice time and nice Croatian meals as well
We adored it mate! Such a chilled out vibe. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope we can return to see more of your city once it’s safe for us to travel again! Cheers, Sheena
Lol Sheena the couple behind you while you were eating the burek were priceless. With all your mmmmmms Im not sure they knew what you were doing exactly. Great video as always
🤣🤣🤣 it’s such a change filming in countries where there are less people and the restaurants and shops are quieter- we must get so many strange looks 😝 Thanks for watching this one Elaine- so glad you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
I'm happy they enjoy the food so much!
We loved it! Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
You gotta drink yogurt with burek for the best experience tho, XD Thanks for the visit!
Ovo kuhano meso ,vidi se da je lijepo prorašteno i ovako preko kamere vidi se da je jako ukusno !
It looks like there are definitely influences of Austrian and Swedish food in there but also a little Irish. It is probably just me but I'm reminded of traditional Irish home cooked food. Good honest homely food offers so much more than your fine dining restaurants. It is food of the soul
Influences from all over the show 😍 We totally agree Catherine- it’s homely food like this that you really crave and that satisfies like nothing else! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena
Always amazing how much there is to learn or at least memory to refresh about my old home! The kitchen influenced greatly from the surrounding neighbors. Maybe also vice-versa here and there. When friends ask me aboout Croatian cuisine, I used to tell them that I believe the best is to basically imagine Austrian/Hungarian/ Italian/ Turkish/ Greek food available at all times and all places throughout Croatia. Just given different names and combinations. But I am the simple type of guy who believes that Italian Tagiatelle is basically the same food as Tibetan Momo and am not able to distinguish the taste of Spaghetti from Ravioli and Penne. Greetings from Switzerland. You guys are doing awesome!
😆😆😆😆😆
Do you miss Croatia mate? We loved visiting and hope we can get back to see more of the country one day soon. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoy our other Zagreb video. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlatesure, at times I do miss the country a lot. But my true home has now been Switzerland way too long, and I love it! Ok, basically Swiss salaries are a powerful argument that enables one to travel a little more than the average earthling. Maybe it's because real estate is so hard to get so that average people simply give up ob it entirely and spend what's left on trips and lifestyle b.s.. Love to pass by or spend some time jumping almost randomly from place to place when in Croatia, then love to leave the country as well. Every single spot on earth must have its up and downsides. Keep enjoying the fruits of the country for me. Looking forward to your next Zagreb vid as well!
Gotta love having a bit more $ in the pocket 😆😍
Loved loved Zagreb Funny story we had a flat tires (wheels) on our luggage. We found a Samsonite luggage store and repair. We dropped our bags off and the luggage guy recommended that restaurant (Pri Zvoncu) Looked it up on Google maps sure enough it is the same restaurant. Watching this video last night we both said that looks like where we ate. Sure enough it was. It had good food!
🙌🙌🙌 it was such a cosy restaurant wasn’t it Linda? The food was delicious. Hope this video brought back good memories of your time in Zagreb. We loved the city too! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
It is so rare to find people trying out the simple traditional meals!
😄😄😄 it’s our jam! It’s what excites us the most- the recipes that have stood the test of time and for good reason! We ate so well in Zagreb. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
Makes me kinda emmbarrassed for people to be praising the type of food i eat almost everyday😂 hello from croatia, im so glad you liked to food
We loved it! Such a comforting and hearty cuisine. Thanks for watching Marija! Cheers, Sheena
The burem kinda looks like a kugel or our german lazy man cheese buttons,that smoky bean soup an pounded veal.yum .makes my mouth water...love potatoes...
Potato anything I’m a fan of Joan. The ones cooked with the onions in that last meal were amazing- couldn’t get over the flavour! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Cheers, Sheena
Thank you, beautiful video
Thanks for watching! Loved filming in Zagreb! Cheers, Sheena
CROATIA HAS ONE OF THE BEST CUISINE! LOVE ZAGREB❤

😄😄😄 it was so hearty and delicious! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena
Very interesting to see the borek served all crushed up that way. We’ve only had it served by the slice or from an entire pie. Can imagine it having a nice mix of the textures when served this way
First time for us too! It was neat served that way actually- loved it from an aesthetic point of view- it looked so beautiful 😍
Very Fantastic Video. Your Content is So Good. Very Powerful Video. I really Liked it. 😍😍

pre-existing Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Anatolian dish en tyritas plakountas (Byzantine Greek: εν τυρίτας πλακούντας) "cheesy placenta", itself a descendant of placenta, the classical baked layered dough and cheese dish of Ancient Roman cuisine.[4][5][6]
not ottoman guys...
Wow! Another one where I could just dive right in the screen an eat! Love it all! Especially the potatoes!
Omg 5cats 2kids, those potatoes were out of this world! I need to recreate them at home- they were so intensely flavoursome 🤤 Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Burek is definitely comfort food...I prefer to get the one that is not chopped up like the one you had....instead they come out in circle and just get cut in triangles like pizza and you can eat it like a sandwich....
Oooo yea, so you can grip it and just chomp into it! It’s such a delicious food. Thanks for watching Silvia! Cheers, Sheena
"Kod Šime", you were even in my neighbourhood. Funny to think about it. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. Good choices of places to eat at. Wondering how you came about them.
😍😍😍😍 it was a great spot! We love eating at local spots and exploring suburbs away from the tourist crowds wherever we travel so we do a load of research before we decide where to film and what places to include 😄 Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
my girlfriend's family is from Drasnice, will have to cook this for them. cheers from san francisco
😍😍😍 do it! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed the video. Sending big love to you in SF. Cheers, Sheena
You guys always find the best stuff. Nice stew there. Smoky-flavored stews make the best stews. Pastry with salty cheese (bureka-style) is such a treat.
😄 thank you Bernard! We totally agree- that stew packed a real punch. So meaty and flavoursome. Thanks for watching and commenting on this video, hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Sheena
That cordon bleu type thing was actually almost the same as what i had in Montenegro, also served with tartar sauce. I really wish i could remember what it was called, Podgorica something or other. it is considered a local dish to podgorica but montenegro is right next door to croatia so it makes sense
podgoricki popeci, that is what it was called. damn good, too
It’s a damn tasty dish right?! Wish we’d make it to Montenegro! We were supposed to travel all around the region but the pandemic stopped us in our tracks. Hope we can get back that way soon. Thanks for watching Ben! Hope the video brought back happy memories of your travels in that area! Cheers, Sheena
I'm officially starving now !!
😆 sorry to give you cravings! Hope you had a snack on hand Jennifer. Thanks for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

🤤🤤🤤 it was fantastic Angie! I could totally understand why the shop was so busy- truly delicious. Thanks for watching and for your lovely comment 🥰 Cheers, Sheena
Great video! It's really nice you actually chose to try "everyday" food instead of the fancy dishes people usually go for. I'm glad you liked it! :)
Useless fact ;) - those potatoes with onions are made by cooking potatoes and then frying them in a pan on previously well sauted onions. They are called "restani krumpir". It is really hard to tell what is actually real Croatian traditional food since it has been influenced by surrounding cuisines - Austrian & Hungarian (esp in the North), Italian (esp. in coastal areas) and Bosnian (Turkish).
Not useless at all Petra! We tried our hand at recreating that dish as we loved it so much so am going to use your tip when we make it again next time! Thank you 😍 So happy you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

As Zagreb born&raised i can't believe that foreigners enjoy so much in this simple meals:) And this restaurant at Kvatrić isn't even so good, there are so much better places in Zagreb with traditional food.

Great, you actually visited the restaurants ordinary people go to. Only one remark, in Zvonce you should have had the rumpsteak. And you have missed the Amfora, on the market just above the place you had the burek - simple sea food. Nice.
Mmm rump steak 🤤 we’ll have to order that next time! Ahhh I believe we filmed at Amfora in our other Zagreb video. Hope you enjoy that one too. Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
