Shop Dubrovnik's vibrant morning market with a professional chef, then retreat to a private kitchen for a hands-on masterclass in Dalmatian cuisine — peka, brodetto, and pršut — finishing with a feast of your own making.
What to expect
The morning begins at Dubrovnik's open-air Gundulić Square market, where your chef selects the day's ingredients — heirloom tomatoes, fresh fish, aged pršut, and local cheeses — introducing you to the farmers and fishmongers along the way. Back in a charming Old City kitchen, you prepare a three-course Dalmatian menu: perhaps black squid-ink risotto, slow-braised lamb, and rožata custard pudding. The class is convivial and unhurried, with local wine poured throughout. You sit down to eat what you've cooked, recipe cards in hand — a flavour of Croatia to take home.
Good to know
Classes typically run 9 am–1:30 pm, fitting neatly within a port day. The kitchen is within the Old City walls — a short walk from the Pile Gate. Maximum 8 guests ensures a genuinely personal atmosphere. Pre-booking essential; classes fill quickly in peak season.
