Konoba Tomić

This legendary konoba stands in the 800-year-old house of the Michieli-Tomić family, whose wines and brandies are sold all over Croatia. Practically everything served is home-made, grown or reared on the property, from pršut ham to lamb, plus, of course, the wine and varied fruit spirits. If you are there in the autumn, you may be lucky enough to watch the family make wine the old-fashioned way in a hand-turned press. You can visit the farm, too. Prices are reasonable for the quality and authenticity. Succulent octopus is prepared ispod peke, under a cooking bell with hot coals. Order this, and your table, in advance. Tomić is near the airport, north-east of Bol.
