CHEF NIKOLA BILANDŽIJA
Nikola is a cooking enthusiast, truly in love with food and cooking, and therefore with his work.
For himself, he would say that he is self-taught, although educated cook, which means hours and hours of studying from professional literature and cookbooks, and then practice through trial and error in the kitchen.
Nikola also incorporated rich experience in some of the best Croatian restaurants on that path; using the opportunity to lead his own team as a Head and Executive chef to expand and perfect his skills and knowledge.
He grew as a cook and chef, and held creative cooking workshops, did a lot of fine dining dinners with wine pairings from acclaimed Croatian winemakers, participated in a popular TV show, and all that was accompanied by Croatian web portals and newspapers in which he appeared.
Currently, after several years of acquiring skills and knowledge in cooking, Nikola embarked on a new experience and adventure by cooking on charter sailboats and catamarans, thus providing satisfaction and pleasure to guests,
through the experience of food, sailing around the beautiful destinations of the Adriatic Sea and islands.
Nikola's most favourite place on Adriatic Coast is the island of Vis, because of its crystal clear sea, countless beautiful hidden bays, but also because of the well-known casualness of the locals and their relaxed way of life.
His favorite dish to prepare on board is the one he improvises, when the guests indulge in Nikola's imagination, then mutual enjoyment of his cooking arises.
