Croatia vacation: Spaghetti criticism sparks heated debate online!”
A photo taken by a vacationer from Croatia is causing a lot of excitement on social media. It shows a simple dish: spaghetti with a meatball and fries. The holidaymaker, who shared the picture in the Facebook group “Rovinj Insider – Pictures and Tips – Istria Croatia”, proudly commented that she “ate very well” and the prices were “right”. But the reactions were anything but positive. Numerous users complained about the food choice and made sarcastic remarks, including comments like "Some people have lost taste when this is good?" and “Anyone who goes to Croatia for this can also stay at home,” as [Merkur](https://www.merkur.de/verbraucher/urlauberin-wird-nach-restaurant sucht-kritiert-wer-dafuer-nach-kroatien-faehrung-kann-auch-zu-hause-halten-93790673.html) reports.
Despite the negative wave, there were also supporters of the holidaymaker who pointed out that one doesn't always have to make such malicious comments. "If you don't have anything kind or constructive to say, it's best to stay silent," one user noted. This heated discussion sheds light on expectations of Croatian cuisine and the diversity of experiences Croatia has to offer.
Diversity of Croatia
Croatia is much more than just quick food on the beach. It offers a wealth of experiences, from the picturesque fishing villages to the beautiful beaches. The regions of Istria, Kvarner Bay, northern and southern Dalmatia are particularly popular. These offer everything your heart desires - from hiking opportunities to water sports to cultural highlights such as the UNESCO-protected Diocletian's Palace in Split and the old town of Dubrovnik, which is also a world cultural heritage site, according to Urlaubserlebnisen.
Kvarner Bay is a true sunny paradise with over 2,500 hours of sunshine a year, while the national parks offer spectacular natural experiences. In addition, the prices for rental cars are quite fair at around €23 per day, and you should never miss out on a relaxing day at the beach, even if the sandy beaches are few and far between.
Culinary delights
Cakes, fish dishes and Mediterranean delicacies are high on the menu in Croatia. The local cuisine is characterized by freshly caught fish and meat dishes. A classic is the easy-going fish stew known as brudet, a delicious dish of various seafood served in many restaurants. If you like to cook yourself, you will find simple instructions in the recipe from Novasol with ingredients such as olive oil, garlic, fresh herbs and a selection of types of fish.
Croatia remains a popular destination, recording 1.7 million arrivals and 110 million overnight stays last year, according to Prime Minister Andrej Plenković. Despite the feedback on the holidaymaker's choice of food, one thing is clear: Croatia has a lot to offer - from cultural abundance to a tasty and diverse culinary offering.
