Go here, take čevapi (chevapi) with onion and chese OR ajvar - pepper source. One of the oldest street food in these parts. It has I think turkish/bosnian roots, but its been here for so long it became our local food. Its meat - minced veal shaped like small sticks, I think they call them baby veal fingers :) Best for hungover :)

This is a top restaurant in terms of food quality and the price. It got one or two Michellin stars. Very close to our house.

Croatian laws are serious about illegal substances including marihuana.

Bars and restaurants are different concepts

Restaurants - eating is a must, no smoking, seated on the tables, quiet atmosphere, booking is advisable Bars - no food, just drinking, smoking allowed, load music, tables provided but also standing around is ok, no booking possible
Costumbres y cultura

Driving bikes - be careful and be visible

No strict laws about these, BUT regular drivers in Split are not 100% used to see bikes on the road yet. I always: - drive a bike on a pedestrian lane/zone rather then on roads (especially fast roads) - do not drive a bicycle drunk (you can be fined) - always safety first (wear helmets and have proper visibility)
