Olimp @ Budva, Montenegro

Lunch at Olimp means eating alfresco on the sandy beach of Budva, a charming 2,500-year-old Montenegrin town on the Adriatic coast. Start with local cheese from the village of Njegusi, then dig into a platter of calamari, octopus, fish, mussels and shrimp.

Konoba Kantun @ Kotor, Montenegro

Kotor is terrific town to get lost in, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with centuries-old homes & cat-filled streets set amid the rugged mountains of the Balkan nation of Montenegro. The local food is far less unforgettable, but a plate of seafood-studded 'red risotto' should still make for a satisfactory lunch in a traditional restaurant like Konoba Kantun.

Konoba Giardino @ Kotor, Montenegro

Montenegro is a magically beautiful country, its majestic mountains forming an indelible backdrop to the islets of Saint George & Our Lady Of The Rocks in the Bay of Kotor. When you need a break from wandering, mosey on down to Konoba Giardino for a feast of Mediterranean fish - a whole surmullet, sea bass, turbot or flounder - filleted at the table, fulfillingly fresh & flaky.
