Roman tastes under the stars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Culinary experience by the sea<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you heard of Roman klinai<\/em>? Do you know who is villicus<\/em>? Would you like to know whom the first toast was dedicated to and discover the meaning of the word \u00bbsalvete\u00ab? All this and more will be revealed to you when you indulge in Roman tastes and become part of Roman aristocracy for one evening. The location, once home to a Roman villa and today the site of an archaeological park, offers a genuine Roman culinary delight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Becoming Romans for the evening will surely be a pleasurable experience. Everything will be the same as it was 2000 years ago. First, you will dress in Roman tunics<\/strong> and make yourselves comfortable in the triclinium (Roman dining room), where you\u2019ll be taken care of by vilicus<\/em> – caretaker of the villa. Indulging in the hedonistic Roman lifestyle will continue with a tasting of Roman cuisine<\/strong>. You will have the chance to try the dishes in true Roman fashion \u2013 using your hands<\/strong>. Thus, you will experience the Roman flavours with all your senses \u2013 something we are not so used to anymore. The vilicus<\/em> will keep you company throughout the evening: he will tell you amusing stories<\/strong> and take care of the cultural-artistic program<\/strong> with an artist from Aquileia. He will be helped by a puella<\/em> (a female Roman slave) and a servant. Finally, you will be treated to a special \u201cforbidden\u201d surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other tastes of Izola<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The proximity of the fertile lands provides for a unique blend of Istrian and maritime cuisine. The traditional dishes of the rural outskirts are based on homegrown produce, thriving among the vineyards and olive groves, while the seaside cuisine relies on fish and molluscs. Local homegrown produce is also sold at the farmer\u2019s market during summer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
