Eating in Croatia?

Leaving for Croatia in a couple of days. If anyone has any favorite places to eat in Zagreb or Dubrovnik give a shout.
Haven't been there in 21 years and I wasn't eating healthy back them. Eating a McDougall diet has allowed me to return there!
Suggestions?

I was in Dubrovnik last November for a few days (and Greece and Turkey.) I don't really remember any place specifically. I think we found some places, including pizza on Happy Cow.

They are a lot more accommodating for "vegan" lifestyle. They still love their olive oil. The hotel had a nice buffet with fruit, bread and oatmeal. We did find a Mexican restaurant that made a sort of compliant burrito and also had dinner at a Japanese place that did rice and veggies. I ate more humus than I should have :)

Leaving tomorrow morning. Was there 21 years ago. I expect it will be a different world. Last time we went the fighting had been stopped for a year and they were still minesweeping the roads. This was long before I changed my diet but I do remember lots of meat!
I will report back after the trip.

Just checking in from Dubrovnek, Croatia. Found eatable food most everywhere in Croatia. In Dubrovnek there is a great place called Urban and Veggie. Several on plan choices and several more that could be made on plan. I had an excellent seitan dish last night for dinner.
The world of vegan and vegetarian options has exploded since our visit 21 years ago. The restaurants are responding to the needs of travelers, many from Europe. It's quite pleasing.
