We opted for sea bass served with a traditional Croatian side dish, <em>blitva<\/em> (Croatian-style chard and potatoes), which is very common along the Adriatic coast. It is often served as an accompaniment to grilled fish or meat, but can also be enjoyed as a vegetarian main course. We found our dish perfectly seasoned and loved the textures sublimated by the cooking.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Zadar\/Resto-Kastel\/i-KZtrx4N\/0\/Mjb6jfRnrR3754FCgkWzfz59vhdNmwSJc6Zv2vRrc\/L\/kastel%20restaurant%20zadar-22-L.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The desserts looked appetizing, and we chose one with mascarpone and dehydrated fig (another local culinary highlight) marinated in prosecco.
