Under the leadership of one of the best and most talented young chefs – Bruno Vokal, Noel achieves success after success. Although he is only 27 years old, this talented chef can already boast an impressive biography, such as running a Michelin-star restaurant. However, Noel is a place where food is not just food - it's a piece of ART, and Bruno and his team are primarily responsible for it. Vokal's passion is taking simple local seasonal ingredients, elevating them, and making delicate yet unique dishes. Every dish is carefully thought through, down to the smallest detail - from taste and appearance to the technique used to process food.
Indulge in Unique Flavors of Noel’s ‘Forest Stroll’ Fall/Winter Menu
Are you ready for a walk in the magical forest? Because Noel's Forest Stroll Menu will take you into the magical world of the powerful palette of tastes and smells. Here you will feel like a child, exploring and discovering new flavors. On every plate, something is enchanting. From aromatic mushrooms, the delicate aroma of poultry, the soft, creamy texture of pumpkins and chestnuts, and the powerful flavors of autumn fruits and spices. The menu consists of as many as 24 harmonious dishes, which will take 3 hours to eat. But who would complain, anyway? None of the meals would be complete without a cocktail, would they? You can choose between The Voice of Rooster, Sizzy Forest, Midnight Stroll, The Artist, and Smokey Feather at the beginning of dinner. Behind these creative names hides just as creative cocktails. And delicious, if we may say! Best of all, Noel's team will serve you two surprise cocktails, Rain Drop and Childhood memory, during the feast. They are as good as they sound. Childhood Memory especially, served as a cube on a ceramic palm. And we must remember the dessert! Think marzipan, almond milk ice cream, Schwazwald ice cream sandwich, walnut with licorice, pine nut air crisp, comfit apple in caramel… yum! The Noel will also blow your mind with its interior: clean lines, neutral colors, and an exceptional atmosphere of luxury and relaxation.
Noel's impeccable service and almost theatrical way of preparing food will leave anyone speechless. If you want to visit this fantastic and now iconic restaurant in Zagreb, indulge in unique flavors and scents, and make a prior reservation, as they are usually fully booked. You can do that through their website or over the phone. We are sure you will be amazed by everything the Michelin-starred restaurant Noel prepares. Bon appetité!
