This was highly recommended by tripadvisor and our host due to its low price but we had to share table with strangers. Reminded me of sharing table in HK.
They have menu in many languages
Salted Cod with potatoes – not to my taste – very fishy 64kuna
Grilled eggplants and capsicium @16kuna
Beef Stew, 50kuna - tasted like our own local beef stew,
Chicken chop swimming in mushroom sauce, 59kuna. Taste is ok.
We chose mashed potatoes as sides – very plain
Total bill was 189kuna. We rounded it up to 200. Not really to my taste but hubby said it was ok for him. Service was good and portions are huge. Price very affordable and reasonable, you can say cheap. Very traditional Croatian/Dalmatian cuisine.
En route to Diolcetian palace we bought an 4euro pistacho gelato
We entered through the south bronze gate which led us to the underground palace, now houses various jewellery and souvenir stalls.
The south gate of the palace used to open up to the sea so that ships can dock and one can enter the palace.
The water is gone now, replaced by a walkway along Riva or beach Street.
This underground passage will eventually lead to palace grounds via stairways at the end.
Peristyle Square
Just beside the peristyle square is St Domnius Church Bell Tower
Next to the peristyle square is the emperor’s residence with an open dome that resembles that of the Pantheon.
This is the place where officials meet up with the emperor.
Near to the Peristyle Square via maze of alleys is Eastern Silver gate.
Wax life size Roman soldiers
Walking away in the opposite direction from Silver Gate via the Peristyle Square, you will arrive at the Iron Gate beside an old clock tower in Na Rodney Square, also called the "People's Square". This square is the striving centre of the old town and the most flourishing square in the old town which often serves a meeting place.
Na Rodney Square means “People’s Square” is connected to the west (iron) gate of the palace. Once one goes through the iron gate, it is another maze of alleys and that will lead to the main square, Peristyle Square of the Dioletian Palace. There are many open-air cages and restaurants here.

Exited thru the northern gate which led us to Statue of Gregory Nin just outside the north golden gate. He promoted Christianity and the language and culture of Croatia while he was alive. .

Pass through the Golden gate and another gate greets you. After this gate and many alleys after, you arrive at the Peristyle Square, the palace grounds.
