Day 13 - Lunch at Lucin Kantun -> Cable Car ride -> Old Town

It was already 2pm when our host left. Headed to Lucin Kantun for lunch as per recommendation from the host.
The food here appealed to Hubby vrery much. He said he loved the food here, especially the shrimp risotto which was not too cheezy. The food was also very well presented.

Menu


Shrimp Risotto – Hubby said this was the best in entire trip!

Tomato based baked octopus with garlic, which I did not really like. Tasted a little sour

Fillet of white fish with 2 kinds of vegetables

Bread

Total Bill was 359kuna.

After lunch, we explored some of the lanes before making our way to the cable car station via Buza Gate with 3 purposes in mind : first to recee the bus stop to the airport, to buy tickets (@120kuna/person) to the airport and of course, lastly to take the cable car!

We returned to the old port via North City Entrance - Buza Gate after the cable car ride.

You can get cable car tickets here but the cable car entrance had a ticket booth too!
