Why locals love it?
It seems incredible that something so typical for Zagreb, so local - something like "strukli" - didn't have a tasting zone up until recently. But recently it all changed with a brand new place that serves nothing but strukli... They serve very creative types of strukli. But since you don't really have a chance to try strukli that often, start with the traditional version. (www. likealocalguide.com/zagreb)

Time out (Croatia) says: This place has been around for a few years and it's a real locals' hang-out. The interior of Alcatraz is crowded with American number plates, beer flags, and mannequins – one of which wears a Mick Jagger mask and seems to be a part of the party. The weekends see it packed with locals, who stop by for a myriad of bottled beers – loads of Belgian speciality brews alongside the excellent local Velebitsko – and the DJs jamming rock and dance tunes. There are also a slew of home-made rakijas (grappas) such as honey, cherry or blackcurrant. (Time Out Croatia/www. timeout.com)
