My friend Mario just sent me the sweetest greetings from Zagreb…  Apple walnut strudel from Bas restaurant, and pastry from Vincek with tiny wild strawberries bringing back wonderful memories.

Vincek is one of those Old World pastry shops that instantly force you to delete the word “calories” from your vocabulary. There’s everything from torten to cakes, pastries, and ice cream. A visit to Zagreb is not complete without a stop (or two!) at Vincek.
