Chef's Restaurant

For lovers of traditional continental cuisine prepared with a touch of modern approach, Tajer is an unavoidable stop. This restaurant finds inspiration in Međimurje's gastronomic heritage, and offers dishes that respect tradition, but always with a touch of creativity. These are mostly meat specialties with various side dishes and sauces. The pleasant and modern ambience provides an ideal environment for all occasions: business lunch, family gatherings or romantic dinners. On weekdays, the restaurant also offers very affordable daily snacks. We started lunch with a cold tomato soup, a light and refreshing introduction to the rest of the menu, after which we tasted a creamy pumpkin seed spread served with toasted bread. For the main course, we chose turkey rolls stuffed with mlinci, prunes and apple. The filling gave them a pleasant sweetness, while the zucchini fritters, enriched with ginger, brought freshness and nicely complemented the flavors. Desserts are hard to resist. Lovers of Međimurje classics should not miss the Međimurje gibanica, rich in recognizable layers of walnuts, poppy seeds, cheese and apples, served with pumpkin ice cream. A special trump card of the restaurant is a carefully composed wine list with a large selection of wines by the glass. The impression is further rounded off by the service: the waiters are professional, friendly and unobtrusive, always ready to give a recommendation. Due to the large attendance, it is advisable to make a reservation in advance.
