Kotor, located on the shores of the Bay of Kotor, is not only known for its rich history and stunning architecture but also for its culinary specialties that captivate every visitor. The city offers distinctive Mediterranean flavors, with a special emphasis on seafood and traditional dishes that reflect the authenticity of Montenegrin cuisine.

Seafood specialties:


Kotor is a true paradise for seafood lovers. Fish brodet is one of the most famous dishes – a fish stew made from boiled fish, usually scorpionfish, with the addition of rice and spices that give the dish its characteristic dark red color and intense aroma. The dish is so delicious that even those who aren't big fans of fish often find it hard to resist its charm.

Frustule and gnocchi:


When it comes to sweet treats, frustule are traditional cookies often served as a dessert. These crispy, dry, and sweet rhombus-shaped cookies are the perfect end to a meal. However, the people of Kotor are especially proud of their gnocchi – a specialty made from dough, typically served during the famous Kotor carnivals. These gnocchi are known for their softness and rich flavor, making them an essential part of the local cuisine.

Wine selection:

 
In addition to food, Kotor offers excellent local wines, which perfectly complement the experience of the traditional Kotor table. Pairing these wines with seafood specialties or traditional dishes provides a complete gastronomic experience.

A visit to Kotor is not complete without tasting these specialties, which, along with the rich historical landmarks, make this city unique in the Mediterranean.
