Total Croatia News The project of construction of the connecting road Tamarić in Nova Mokošica entered the last phase before the announcement of the public procurement for construction, reports the City of Dubrovnik. At the moment the final expropriation procedure is being carried out and for which purpose the City of Dubrovnik has so far paid HRK 2,865,812.50 in budget funds. Until the completion of the entire expropriation procedure which is expected to be carried out over the next four months all the preconditions for starting the public procurement were met. Considering that the estimated value of this important investment in road infrastructure is HRK 25 million the City of Dubrovnik plans to apply for one of the upcoming tenders for financing the project with funds from the European Union Let us remind you that the new road that will connect the Mokošica Elementary School with the unclassified road Lozica-Mokošica-Komolac-Sustjepan is planned as a two-way road with a sidewalk and the total infrastructure within the road body. The total length of the project is 895 meters of which 275 meters is the intersection on the unclassified road Lozica-Mokošica-Komolac-Sustjepan and 620 meters on the new connecting road. Separate lanes will be formed for left and right turnouts with a sidewalk along the northern edge of the road and the construction of a crossing over the Tamarić stream on the connecting road is also planned Its construction will improve the functionality of the Nova Mokošica road network and relieve the existing intersection with the former county road. The procedure largely solves the long-standing traffic problem of parents whose children attend classes at the Mokošica Elementary School because the construction of this road will ensure proper traffic to school For more, check out our lifestyle section and website in this browser for the next time I comment Finishing works have been completed on

have scoured the menus of Dubrovnik to bring you our favourites And not only did we just research the menus we have gone that extra step and tasted the food in advance for you...its hard work but someone has to do it This week I visited a relatively new restaurant in a rather unique location – Konoba BoGo Through the height of the summer season the cobbled streets of Dubrovnik are loaded down with the slap of flip-flops You just want to get away from the maddening crowds and have some peace and tranquillity Konoba BoGo is a fresh break from the normal hustle and bustle of eateries in the city Located on the waterfront and with the cool Ombla River meandering by BoGo is truly a breath of fresh air “It’s like nature’s own air-conditioning,” I commented to the owner when I arrived traditional cuisine served with style and care “We like to call the menu rustic,” smiled the owner Adding that respect is paid to the home-grown produce and time-honoured recipes For a starter we would heavily recommend the smoked ham (or prsut) from Drnis This is really what prsut should taste like and Drnis is the premier location for the best smoked ham in the country This dish really sums up the restaurant – tasty If you fancy a warm starter as well then the selection of risottos is stunning – I went for the veal risotto and is was perfect For the main course why not try something from the grill There is a wide selection of fresh fish as well as four types of steak I went to see the grill area and it is probably one of the largest and best equipped in the city although more than a little warm so stay close to the river Also the lamb and veal under the bell (although you will have to order 12 hours in advance) is delicious Quite clearly the relaxing river setting has an influence on the staff In the Old City the waiters can be snappy and short as the heat rises if you were wondering what Konoba meant it’s a Croatian word for tavern – and yes BoGo feels just like a tavern For dessert (some would say the most important course) I plumped for the semifreddo and I wasn’t disappointed With live music on Thursdays and Sundays and an interesting wine and beer list Konoba BoGo should be on your radar whilst in Dubrovnik or grab a taxi and really enjoy the wine list I would also recommend the red wine liquor It is made from an old recipe from the times of the Dubrovnik Republic yes we told you that BoGo respected traditions Nova Mokošica+385 (0)95 333 5335Open from 17.30 to midnight (weekdays) Weekends – 7.30 to midnight
