“Were recommended by local”

“When family and friends come to visit, take Nina and Martin with them to their favorite places. They usually begin with a lunch at the Trattoria Tinel. “

“When the Norwegian VG meet them at the restaurant, greeted the pair warmly by the waiter. They are regulars.”

“– We were recommended this place by a local. Since then, Tinel has become our favorite place. Here we get good food that costs significantly less than at the restaurants on the Riva, ” says Martin.”

“Trattoria Tinel is located on a secluded side street, just 30 metres from the popular Riva promenade. (Address: Tomica Stine 1). “

“On the menu are local specialties in the form of pasta, grilled meat, sea food and black risotto, colored by ink from the squid. “

“Nina and Martin don’t need to look at the menu. They know what they want: home-made green pasta with salmon and scampi in a rich cream sauce. “

“– There are few places I get the pasta as perfect as this. It should be al dente, with a bit of bite, ” says Martin.”

“The higher we get on the Marjan hill, the better views of the city and the islands. In many places there are benches where hikers can sit and enjoy the view. The pine trees gives a pleasant shade, and the only sound is the birds ‘ loud chirping. “

“– Here are stairs and paths. An excellent area both on foot and on bike, ” says Nina. “

“We cross the little mountain summit and crossing a huge cross as tourists take selfies in front of. We walk past churches that are built in bergsväggen, so high that it is difficult to understand that someone can visit them. Soon we see the Plaza Kasunistranden below us. It has the whitest sand in the Splitområdet. And few tourists. “

“– It is my favoritstrand, ” says Nina.”

“On our way back to town we lay it down on an open-air café on”

“Despite the fact that we have gone around the entire Marjan, we are still satisfied after the paste on the Tinel. But back in the centre, we still have to taste the local take-away specialty of Ćevapčići, when we pass the place that sells the city’s best Ćevapčićis: Kantun Paulina (address Matošića ul. 1). “

“Outside, it is almost always a queue. Ćevapčići, or Cevapi that it can also be hot, similar to burgers, but the minced meat is shaped like small sausages. “

“– It’s the bread that makes this place is the best. It is extra juicy in this, ” says Martin.”

“After having studied for six years in Split, the Norwegian couple are well known in the Old town. My own attempts to find shortcuts through the gatuabyrinterna, ending each time with longer distances, where I end up in completely different places than planned. But it is a fun way to explore the city, inside the emperor Diokletians old summer palace.”

“On the 300-century, after the roman emperor died in 311, started the city’s residents move into the palace. The people built the houses and the streets and created what today appears as a maze of an old city. “

“Nina and Martin know how to proceed. They go past the Choco Cafe (address: Ilicev Prolaz 1) selling heavenly cakes. And La Bodega (address: Mihovilova širina 1) where it is possible to drink wine. They show the stairs where the steps is a seating area for bars along with the sides – a popular gathering place both day and night, especially after midnight.”

“With the targeted steps we can take you through the Old town to the restaurant Dvor on the other side. (address: Put Firula 14). “

“This is the most exclusive restaurant studentparet visit in Split. Not very often, only if it is a special occasion. “

“Dvor means garden. And the whole restaurant is a big garden in a multi-storey, with white-and blue-painted smidesjärnstolar and tables between the palm trees and pine trees, with views of the beach below.”

“While we are waiting for dessert at Dvor, we go down to the sea to dip their toes. There, we meet the tourists Lyka Breen and H van der Werf from the Netherlands. They do like the locals, and play. ”

“If you are on a beach in the vicinity of the Split, you can’t help but to notice them, are Often great bunch of boys and men standing in water to her knees and hit the ball to each other with the help of the palm of the hand as the racket. We see many of them after dinner at Dvor, when we walk back along the sea just before the sun goes down. There are still people on the beaches. And out in the water, start killgängen play picigin. “

“In the evening’s last rays of the sun is Philipp Dernen from Hanover on the beach and juggling with newly purchased piciginbollar. A short distance away playing four backpackers from Melbourne, Sydney and London, the cards in the sand. A bunch of English girls pack up strandväskorna and decide that they should meet again later in the evening. “
