The manifestation “Fish Dinner”, within the 50th Mimosa Festival, was held last night at the Institute of Igalo. Guests were entertained by Petar Grašo who said that "The holiday of the Mimosa is a period in which he likes to come to Herceg Novi because there are celebrations everywhere, and everything is nice".
The popular Croatian singer has been to Herceg Novi many times and his last appearance was two years ago. For the audience at the “Fish Dinner”, he prepared a cross-section of all the biggest hits from his 23-year-long career. Guests of the “Fish Dinner” were mostly citizens from Herceg Novi, but also people from all over Montenegro and traditional agency guests of the Institute.
"People from Herceg Novi like to come to the Institute, we always try to prepare something new, to present a new performer, to respect the tradition and the Mediterranean touch, along with our classic fish dinner," said the executive director of the Institute Dr Simo Milosevic, Dr Gordana Rajovic.
750 varied dishes were served, which was prepared for hours by more than 20 people, said the master chef Zoran Mrvaljevic. On the menu were salted sardines, fish pâté, codfish salad, black and white risotto and sea bream with Dalmatian vegetables, and as a dessert Montenegrin baklava was served.
In the introductory part of the evening performed the violinist Verica Culjkovic, and beside Petar Graso, the audience also danced along the band Castel Nuovo from Herceg Novi.
