Montenegro Slow Travel: 5-Day Foodie Highlights

As a Mediterranean cuisine lover, I adored Montenegro’s seafood and Italian flair—zero disappointment! 🦪 1. Restoran Cesarica (Kotor) Order: Seafood Platter (€35) + Red Risotto (€25). Verdict: Fresh catch! Octopus tender, scallops sweet. Hidden star: Herbed potato mash with wild greens 💚. Note: €70 for two → pretty but not filling 😅. 🍝 2. La Catedral Pasta Bar (Kotor) Hype: High Google ratings + gorgeous courtyard. Dish: Trio-Mushroom Pasta (rich, truffle-kissed). Tip: Share portions—they’re massive! Great value. 🦐 3. Pepe Nero(Kotor) 🌟 TOP MEAL! White Risotto: Life-changing! Zucchini, plump shrimp, light cream (€15). Why go?: Open late (post-fortress climb savior). Atmosphere: Cozy stone walls, fairy lights ✨. 🍕 4. Secret Pizzeria (Old Town Alley) Find it: Unmarked hole-in-the-wall (follow the aroma!) The Magic: €3 giant slices—thin crust, blistered edges. Pro move: Breakfast + lunch here → gelato next door 🍦. 📍 Key Takeaways Seafood = MVP: Cesarica’s platter > Pepe Ner’s risotto for freshness. Budget Tricks: Pizza + gelato = €5 happy meals. Split pastas at La Catedral. Late-Night Eats: Pepe Ner till 10 PM+! #MontenegroFood #KotorEats #AdriaticSeafood #BudgetTravel #SlowTravel #MediterraneanDiet
