Tic Tac is hidden in a small passage inside the village, and the first thing you see when you enter

How's the wine? "Austrian tourist red face looked enviously towards chilled bottle of Malvasia Coronico on our table. He sat in silence with his wife, both stroking his obvious warm beer and staring into the distance as if wondering how they ended up on the island of Murter. We were in a restaurant seafood bizarrely named Tic Tac, but they did not eat, but they probably then went on sandwiches. Then came another group of tourists and despite the beautiful sea creatures exposed on ice in a transparent tank, they chose a plate of spaghetti bolognese. Sometimes it seems hard to go Croatian tourism.

Also, driving here from Zadar on the coast, we saw quite a few cars on the highway. Someone has said that most of the tourists now drive on the parallel highway, but I noticed that sandy beaches along the coast are never truly reloaded.
Sometimes coincidence turns out better than the careful preparation. Tic Tac, unpretentious names in Murter on the island, so far the best restaurant in which I was for a week in Croatia. Not only does it offer excellent fresh seafood, but the staff is extremely courteous and friendly, and leaves room alone after they brought food. Few things iritantnijih of the waiters - and sometimes a whole squadron of them - who carefully monitored the progress of your meal and jump like a well-trained harpy to seize the empty plates and glasses, nymag as if eager to leave.
I drove to the south, crossing the "Gotovina country" and thought about the fact that one of the great things in Croatia is that people here are so different, not only from one region to another, but also within each city. Most of my first week I spent in Istria and I liked the quiet humor of its people. It seems that the folk of Istria tolerate any of tourists, until he brought it some money.
Istrians really not joking, and when they smile, nymag it seems that it requires duplication of effort, but do not insult them when Macedonian and Serb from Novi Pazar called the "faster", "boy" and so on (which I do automatically, after I spent a year in this part of the world). I've never heard nationalist remark in Istria, and people seem to be very tolerant towards foreigners, probably because they have become immune after a lengthy contact with so many depressing Slovenes there en masse.
But here, south, drive through "Gotovina country," pass through Bibinje (how can I be such nationalists - they tell me that they were - when you live in the city so obviously nymag non-Slavic names, Latin overtones), then end Pakoštani, whose name, if it comes of "pakostiti" seems a curse in itself. I'm tempted to stop, but I decide that I'm not going after the road I noticed a huge billboard with Gotovina's rejuvenated face in Photoshop. "Hero", screams the poster huge letters. nymag Well, we'd rather eat a little more ... And so we arrived at Murter, over a small bridge over a canal.
Tic Tac is hidden in a small passage inside the village, and the first thing you see when you enter the passage is a small aquarium with an impressive and foolish lobsters that can beat you. Moreover, at first glance, this place does not look like anything special. Then, when he got the food, everything changes! First, we take a delicious fish soup and a delicious soup with cuttlefish, in which the texture of soft pieces of cuttlefish balanced crunchy green beans that give it the color, and green beans and swim in the dark, black soup. For 45 Kuna for fish and 40 kuna soup with cuttlefish, both are enjoyable.
The wine list yet, a waiter, a Bosnian youth from Novi Travnik, he says, "we have everything". Novi Travnik! As I said, it's one of the things that make Croatia so interesting country. But when a guy opens a bottle of Malvasia, we think we'll be disappointed, as happened in so many other restaurants across Croatian. The wine was sour, with a strong taste of those awful sulfite nymag that winemakers now available in virtually all white wines. But the young Bosnian konbar says, "no problem", and refers without any fuss and bring another bottle, the one that was so tempting Austrians at the next table.
He then proposes and brings a bunch of fresh sea creatures: sea squirts, sea urchin, delicious oysters, all beautifully arranged on ice. This is the first time I eat sea squirts and sea urchin, a young man from Travnik patiently and politely explains how they are treated. Only tuna, which is advertised as sushi - it's for tourists from the West, of course nymag - a little too aged, but still acceptable. Otherwise, everything is great and cheap by western standards. The only really expensive thing is the lobster, which stands 590 a kilogram. But we have the pleasure to choose it yourself and watch him cook - also very young - come catch with his bare hands.
