For those of you who are traveling with us on the June 2021 “Croatia and Beyond” journey, you will notice the addition of several new sites and dining venues.
While in Kaprina for the day, we will visit ”Vuglec Breg”, the creative and romantic vision of the Vuglec family. The Vuglec family’s aim was to convert the heritage of their ancestral home, into a lasting legacy. Inspired by the desire to create a unique full circle experience, you will surely be immersed in the natural environment of Zagorje, a magnificently beautiful region of Croatia.
Inside the restaurant, decorated in traditional style, the atmosphere sets the perfect mood for a magnificent gastronomical event. Precious coveted recipes from “Grandma’s kitchen” have been resurrected, and add a touch of authenticity to specialties such as Grandma Roza’s bread, cottage cheese strudel, veal, lamb, duck, and turkey with mlinci.
”Vuglec Breg” was built on the foundations of the old Zagorje hamlet of ”Vuglec”. This Michelin mentioned estate stretches over 12 hectares, and from the hill’s peak, one can enjoy a magnificent view of the surrounding region, dotted with houses, cottages and churches.
Great to visit any time of the year, with fireplaces for a cozy feel, or on the summer terraced pergola (Pri baki Rozi), with its outdoor cooking amenities, positioned right along the vineyard. Let’s raise a glass and toast our latest culinary wonder!
