Bistro Lucica (Trogir)

  • June 27, 2003
  • Rated 4 of 5 by billmoy from Chicago, Illinois
This restaurant is actually located on Ciovo Island, which sandwiches the little island of Trogir with the mainland of Croatia. It is supposedly a popular hangout with the local fishermen, but we apparently came at an off-peak hour and had the outdoor patio to ourselves. I can well imagine a good crowd here on a warm summer evening, with locals lifting a beer while waiting for their meat to come off the grill.

This restaurant is initially hard to spot, but you have to walk past Trogir and up the front thoroughfare of Ciovo before you spot the large sign on top of the establishment. There is an indoor dining room as well as the outdoor patio, which is covered by awnings.

I ordered the Zagreb-style veal as a tasty and filling lunch. In case you were wondering what the heck this is, it is very similar in style to chicken cordon bleu. A good-sized portion of veal is smothered in ham and cheese, and then fried into a breaded cutlet. A spot of spinach, a dash of tangy red sauce akin to a shrimp cocktail sauce, and a wedge of lemon round out this typically hearty meal. I also ordered a side of sliced potatoes, which was strongly recommended by our waitress. I really did not need it because my meal was large enough as it was, but the potatoes were a good compliment to the veal. My friend ate an equally enjoyable steak. A basket of deliciously chewy pita-like bread accompanied the meal, but it appeared as a small add-on charge on the final bill.
