Krk is a great destination for aficionados of food and drink. Locally produced olive oil, cheese, first-class fish and island lamb are highly valued and certainly among the reasons why numerous travelers come to eat at local taverns and restaurants.

Catering to their guests’ wishes and appreciating locally sourced produce, Krk caterers offer healthy and tasty seasonal dishes prepared from fresh ingredients and almost always laced with olive oil.

Highly valued is Krk sheep’s milk cheese produced on family estates. The cheese made from milk of Krk sheep has a distinctive taste owing to air salinity, peculiarities of climate and recipes and techniques used in its production.

Krk is equally proud of its wine. Especially popular is Vrbnička žlahtina, a quality light-yellow to straw-yellow dry wine produced from a grape variety native to Krk’s Vrbnik Valley. This wine agrees best with sheep’s milk cheese, fish, seafood and white meat. In a nutshell - Krk has everything!
