Ordering a “Peka” Dish

Food cooked under a peka, or cooking bell, is usually ordered 24 hrs. ahead of time. The peka is covered with hot ashes while underneath it the meat (normally lamb, or sometimes octopus) bakes with potatoes and vegetables. Complete cooking usually takes several hours. The results are tender and lovely. Some of the best places to try peka cuisine are Lambik in Milna on Hvar, Panorama above Orebić on Pelješac, Konoba Mate in Pupnat on Korčula, and Konavoski Dvori near Cavtat in the Dubrovnik area.
