Mala Riba on Zagreb's Sea

The final “Wine by the Spoon” event of the year, now in its 28th edition, was held on Zagreb’s very own sea – Lake Jarun – at the restaurant Mala riba. There, just as in the Adriatic Sea, the young manager Karla Mikičić navigates brilliantly. Fourteen years ago, her family, together with the Nikolac family, opened the tavern of the same name in Matulji near Opatija. The business in Matulji is running smoothly, so they decided to expand to Zagreb, where, since opening in June,

Jing Yuan: najmirnija kineska čajana u Zagrebu

U mirnom kutku Gajnica, jednog od najzelenijih i najsamostalnijih zagrebačkih naselja, postoji mjesto gdje se čini da vrijeme teče drugim ritmom. Ovdje, u maloj čajani Jing Yuan koja ujedno djeluje i kao bistro, život se ne mjeri minutama ni porukama, već šalicama — toplim, mirisnim, polaganim šalicama kineskog čaja. Prolazak kroz njezina neupadljiva vrata djeluje poput prelaska praga u drugo stanje uma. Nekoliko drvenih stolova, mnoštvo sitnih elemenata kineske kulture i ide

Jing Yuan: Zagreb’s Most Serene Chinese Tea House

In a quiet corner of Gajnice, one of Zagreb’s greenest and most self-contained neighborhoods, there is a place where time seems to move at a different rhythm. Here, in a small tea house Jing Yuan that doubles as a bistro, life is measured not in minutes or messages, but in cups — steaming, fragrant, unhurried cups of Chinese tea. Walking through its unassuming doorway feels like stepping across a threshold into another state of mind. A few wooden tables, numerous small pieces
