Selected
This restaurant within the Bitoraj hotel is essential for exploring Gorski Kotar gastronomy, offering hearty soups and indigenous dishes like homemade baked blood sausage, pork knuckle, or grilled trout, alongside game specialties such as wild game stew and bear, deer, and wild boar steaks. Its uniqueness lies in the “fireplace” dishes, with a menu harmonized with the surrounding nature. The wooded area is rich in mushrooms, which are used in soups, risottos, and sauces for meat dishes, as well as appetizers like mushrooms stuffed with prosciutto and cheese or sautéed porcini. Begin with cold appetizers like homemade škripavac cheese and venison or bear prosciutto, then try frog legs in butter with green sauce or breaded frog legs. For the main course, try the piglet under the bell or farm-style ribs, and finish with Bajer pancakes or homemade Bitoraj strudel. Bitoraj is popular for group celebrations and offers a rustic setting for both summer terrace dining and cozy indoor rooms in colder months.
