Humanitarian Dubrovnik Table Closes the 11th Good Food Festival
The traditional gastronomic event with a humanitarian character – the Dubrovnik Table – was held for the 15th time on Stradun.
Numerous Dubrovnik hotels, restaurants, bakeries, pastry chefs, caterers, and winemakers showcased their knowledge and skills, accompanied by a performance from the vocal group Klapa Ragussavechia.
The price of a voucher was 8 euros for food and 4 euros for wine, and as every year, the proceeds from the sale of gourmet delicacies will be donated to charity. This time, the funds are intended for the Maslina Community Service Center (Dom Maslina), and the sale of vouchers raised 15,838.39 euros.
The Dubrovnik Table is the highlight of the Good Food Festival, but also the first event in the framework of the Central Celebration of the UNESCO World Heritage Year in Dubrovnik, which will feature a series of events from October 20th to 27th. Along the entire Stradun, Dubrovnik’s hoteliers, caterers, family farms (OPGs), and winemakers presented numerous traditional ingredients and dishes this year.
It's worth mentioning that the organizers of the Dubrovnik Table are the City of Dubrovnik, the Dubrovnik Tourist Board, the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, the Croatian Chamber of Commerce – County Chamber Dubrovnik, the Chamber of Crafts of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, the Guild of Caterers, and the Dubrovnik Tourism and Hospitality School.
