The first day of spring was marked in the Bugenvila restaurant with the hosting of the Goût de France 2016 event. There was a real French colour to the restaurant last night as guests enjoyed a creative menu.

Goût de France 2016 

The Goût de France is an initiative that was organized on the initiative of Alain Ducasse and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Development in France. 1,000 chefs on five continents prepared a French evening on the 21st of March, the first day of spring, and ten restaurants in Croatia were hand selected to enter the celebration, the Bugenvila restaurant in Cavtat was amongst this select few.

“The first day of spring symbolises a time of new beginnings, and I think that we have found the right combination in our menu for Goût de France,” commented the founder and co-owner of Bugenvila, Igor Korousic, to The Dubrovnik Times.
