Zagreb, July 3, 2024 – For the next month, Trg braće Mažuranića in the center of Zagreb becomes a gastronomic hub thanks to Ljeto kod Matoša. The event offers all the necessary ingredients for unforgettable hot days in the city, with DJ and band rhythms in the shade of old chestnut trees, and plenty of options for food and drink.

Eight food stalls offer a diverse range of classic and modern flavors, with numerous toppings and sides, as well as refreshing drinks and cocktails. The only dilemma is – what to choose?

Italian panini sandwiches, tacos & tortillas, bao buns, burgers, burratas, bubble waffles, and let's not forget the cocktails...

At the Oh La La stall, authentic Italian burrata filled with Genovese pesto, smoked salmon, sprinkled with Grana Padano cheese and arugula, is offered, and for the finishing touch, crema di aceto balsamico is drizzled on top. For refreshment, there's the indispensable summer dessert – ice cream.
