Przno - More

The Mediterranean is massively over fished, so much so that the Greek islands have little surrounding sea life. Mykonos has almost all of its fish imported from Athens. Most menus make it clear that their fish has been previously frozen and if you do find fresh fish it is very expensive.

To sit by the waters edge in Przno throwing bread into the sparkling clear water and watch dozens, if not hundreds of fish, some quite large, feed in a frenzy, is a truly rare experience in European waters these days.

Our table at More, on the Przno Adriatic waterfront, was on the very edge of the sea. A tangled fishing net acted as a fence. I moved my wallet to the other side of the table for fear that I'd accidentally contribute it to the fishes' lunch.

Langust, two doors along, may have the reputation but we found the food better at More.

The platter of fish freshly caught by the local fishermen was duly displayed. €40 - €45 will buy a grilled Dorade or St Pierre large enough for two.

The clams in the Vongole Buzaru (tomato soup/sauce) were still chewy but not quite as inedible as those served by Langust. (Clams are probably best avoided in Przno.)

The Seafood Spaghetti was very good and excellent value at €9.

The accompanying Greek Salad was fresh with crisp tomatoes and cucumber, and succulent pieces of feta cheese.

Ambience counts for a great deal in a dining experience and there is no doubt that watching the fish feed on a second basket of More's bread (the waiter was very tolerant and obliging) helped make the moment memorable. However the food was definitely better than Langust.
