Slasticarna-Pasticceria Breski

This pastry shop is a little gem not only in Croatia, but in the world. To give you a bit of context: I am the son of a pastry chef, a very good one (and I say it out of admiration rather then parent-son respect), and he got me at every pastry festival/pastry and bakery innovation fair in Italy. I had the occasion of tasting from the great masters; but I also travelled and tried a lot of different pastries in different cities in this countries: Portugal, Italy, UK, Germany, Austria, France, Turkey. The owner (which was extremely kind, accepting me and my girlfriend in the shop when he almost closed for the day) should be proud of what he is achieving, because those are among the finest, lightest and great tasting pastries I have ever ate. He is truly at the level of French and Italian Masters. Price/quantity is amazing too. When I went to Palermo, I immediately remember of that august afternoon when I had the luck of stopping by Pasticceria Breski. My girlfriend doesn't even like pastries in general and she wanted more of the one I was eating. Sure honey, no problem, actually better since I can taste more of them. Do not expect super fancy stuff though. They look as they are: sincere, authentic. As only a good artist can be.

I was so excited to find this place and looking forward to trying some authentic croatian pastries. It was raining torrentially and we arrived dripping wet after searching for it. The man was extremely rude and unfriendly. I asked if he would rather not have our business and he said goodbye. Very disappointing! The next day we gave him another chance (to be friendly) and he was okay... Pastries okay... The breskvice (peach cookies) were the best. I could have eaten 10 of them!

So grumpy that we didn't buy anything. Got another chance the next day and he was a little friendlier this time. Peach cookies were awesome!
