Flavours of Žitný Ostrov along the Danube
The gastronomy of Žitný Island and the Danube shore leads to the heart of the region – fish restaurants, craft producers, traditional mills and local markets.
The landscape is not only beautiful but delicious. Traditional fish restaurants, craft producers and small bakeries work in Žitný Island; along the Little Danube working water mills still grind grain.
