No true gourmet in the world should regard her or himself as such if, at least once in their life, they have not wanted to taste truffles - the gourmet crown jewel of Istria. Truffles, these odd looking mushrooms that grow underground, are a trademark of Istria, and the folk of Istria show their gratitude by jealously guarding the recipes specific to their peninsula. Come autumn, however, the whole of Istria celebrates the Days of Truffles which provide the opportunity for all to savour the wealth of truffles in every possible combination of flavours and to learn about the wonder of truffles. Do not take our word, come and taste for yourself.
