From village kitchens to elite restaurant
Strukli: this house special is a traditional handmade pastry that oozes oven-baked fresh cottage cheese topped with cream: absolutely delicious. The Esplanade has been making the city’s finest strukli for nigh on a century now and the demand for this Zagreb specialty shows no signs of dwindling.
History of preparing strukliA traditional specialty from Croatian Zagorje (the Region North of Zagreb, on the other side of the Medvednica mountain), born in the hilly landscapes covered in picturesque pastures and plough-fields, claimed it’s undisputed as a part of the hotel’s culinary offer from the very beginning.

Strukli were prepared in this hotel for the first time back in 1951, when they became a part of the menu, and the Esplanade hotel kept this tradition ever since. Hence of the hotel and strukli cherish a very special, lasting relationship. The idea came from the hotel’s chef desire to collect special and verified recipes from various Croatian regions.
