Zagreb = Pizza Mecca?

Train
It seems unlikely, but there you go. We set out rather early this morning, catching the first train from Ljubljana to Zagreb in Croatia.

Driver 8
We decided that the most comfortable and comforting spot would be in the dining car. Breakfast of champions ensued, lager, coffee, and potato chips. The conductor was a chatty sort. We tried to buy him a drink, but he insisted that beer was bad for his head. The tumbler full of vodka, on the other hand...

Chef de Train
The chef. Don't mess with the chef.

Zagreb
Familiar, Hapsburg styled city.

flower market
Zagreb fruit and veg market. Kind of a drizzly morning, so we took it easy, had a coffee, watched the people.

tesla
Huh... Tesla was here.

main square
Trg Bana Jelacica - the main square.

Maharadja
Another member of IRAW (Indian Restaurants Around the World). G. refused to eat here unless puff pastry was involved. It wasn't. We moved on. Good thing, too.

Maharadja
Because this pizzeria was open.

Pizza
And because, this pizza was enough to bring G. to his knees. A pizza to make a grown man weep. I know I'm going to be hearing about this pizza for days... months.... possibly longer...
