He is always smiling and approachable and speaks good English.

VLADO URODA Vladimir was born in the northern Croatia. He began his career overseas working for upscale restaurants across Europe and ended up working on the largest yachts in the Adriatic such as Katarina II, and Artemy. However, his passion for eating well and focusing on the local cuisine and using only the local produce made him a bit of local celebrity. He is very vocal in his mission to encourage people to eat healthy and staying away especially from the ultra and processed food. He is passionate about introducing and converting foreign guests to the delights of healthy fresh local Dalmatian dishes...heavily based on stewed meats and fresh fish! He is of happy and cheerful disposition and speaks good English.
