Where: Restaurant Nautika, Dubrovnik
Why Go: in a city where views are currency (islands! boats! roofs!), this restaurant , overlooking a cove that’s nicely insulated from the madding crowds, claims the most valuable panorama for itself.
A Side of Atmosphere: The walled Old Town, whose streets have been buffed to a sheen from ten centuries’ worth of visitors, feels like a museum come to life. And there’s no better spot to reflect on your place in history than from Nautika’s outdoor terrace: Two stone fortresses-elegant examples of the city’s perfectly preserved medieval beauty – jut into the azure Adriatic, and every so often, a sailboat slices through the waves.
Appetite for Seduction: You’re staring at the sea, so ordering should be easy: Nautika specializes in seafood dishes that are specific to Dalmatian coast, like sea bass with squid-ink sauce or lobster medallions Korčula-style (served over greens and topped with local olive oil and vinegar.
