Meet Your Chef

Chef Nikola brings over 11 years of culinary experience from kitchens across Montenegro, Croatia, and Germany. Born in the coastal town of Kotor, he started his career in traditional taverna-style restaurants, where he developed a deep respect for local ingredients and the rhythm of seasonal cooking. His journey then took him to sushi bars and fine dining restaurants, where he honed precision, creativity, and artistry.

Nikola’s philosophy is simple: great food begins with passion and honest ingredients. He loves transforming local produce into dishes that surprise and delight — and sharing that joy with others. His teaching style is relaxed, encouraging, and full of personality, making every guest feel like part of the kitchen team.

For Nikola, the greatest reward is watching guests enjoy the food they’ve created — and leave with a deeper appreciation for the art of cooking.
