About Bota Šare Mali Ston

On the seaside promenade in Mali Ston, Bota Šare fills a vaulted medieval salt store, bota being the old word for an arched ceiling. The kitchen keeps faith with authentic Dalmatian cooking, inspired by two old cookbooks found in dusty corners of the building, and prepares oysters, shellfish, crab and fish to Ston recipes from the days of the Dubrovnik Republic. Expect home-made bread, grilled fish, stews, risottos and local desserts, and there is a sushi and oyster bar too. Ask about the boat trips out to the oyster farms.
