Then, there is also the well-known pasta, the so-called šurlice, made with homemade dough that works excellent with goulashes and sauces. The specialties of Krk are unique for the herbs and the addition of homemade olive oil, an essential part of every original specialty that gives the food a special taste to it, leaving you wanting more.
