New York vapi za hrvatskim restoranom

Novinar New York Timesa bio je oduševljen posluženim jelima, atmosferom, prirodom i sve je usporedio s talijanskom Toskanom, a to je, znaju dobri poznavatelji američke turističke i gastroscene, velik kompliment koji dodatno potiče čitatelje da se raspitaju gdje je taj Motovun, tko kuha u konobi Mondo i kojim se zrakoplovom može doputovati najbrže i najugodnije do Hrvatske.

It is what eating in the Old World should feel like

Among the highlights are beef carpaccio with shavings of black truffle, a rich and creamy polenta with truffles and a delicious dish of tagliatelle — in a truffle sauce, of course. Truffles are abundant there, and are dug up by hunters and their dogs (or more traditionally with pigs) fresh in the mornings.

An exceptional selection of Istrian flavours!

A warm atmosphere, a pleasant interior and a beautiful view of the rocky streets of Motovun is a concise description of the charming Konoba Mondo. Most importantly, it is the right place to enjoy good food. As a starter try the Motovun plate, a combination of cold cuts and cheese, and what we don’t often see - melted cheese enriched with aromatic herbs. An exceptional selection of Istrian flavours! Let’s single out the tartare, which has a great texture and is well seasoned. They are generous with the white truffles, shaved over the juicy meat. A really fantastic combination!

Simple feel-good konoba

The simple feel-good konoba fits perfectly into the mountain village, and in summer it is really cosy under the ancient chestnut tree. Asparagus or pumpkin cream soup is served seasonally, pasta is available in different variations and the grilled pork chop harmonises with truffle cream.

The best meal of her life

Our first stop in Motovun was the restaurant across the street from our Airbnb: the inviting stone terrace of Konoba Mondo. I ordered a delicious penne with Sicilian pistachio and Istrian prsut, an air-cured ham. After one bite, my friend exclaimed that the creamy polenta with Parmesan cheese and black truffles that she ordered was the best meal of her life.
