What consequences does Dubrovnik have to live with as a filming location for "Game of Thrones"? How does a truffle hunt work and how are the dogs trained? In episode 3, Kiki takes you to Croatia. We follow her through the culinary scene on the Istrian peninsula, learn about the production of olive oil and that the name "Bora" has nothing to do with the South Sea island. In this episode, we talk about a country that has been shaken again and again in its thousands of years of history and rose like a phoenix from the ashes after the end of the Croatian War.

Kiki talks about high-quality food produced in family businesses and the surprising offerings in konobas, Croatia's answer to Greek tavernas. She recalls her first visit in the footsteps of Winnetou and a terrifying night at the campsite. In the third episode, we talk about a country that scores with dramatic nature, medieval villages and Venetian architecture in harbor towns. Quality and over-tourism, crystal-clear sea and oysters galore.

What are truffles and why is Istria famous for them? In episode 3 of Logbuch, Kiki introduces us to the still relatively unknown culinary world of Istria. What kind of mentality did she encounter in Croatia and why did she once have to spend an entire night holding a tent?

In episode 3, we encounter the historical traces of Croatia's eventful history and the family businesses of the north. This week's logbook also has a touch of luxury about it. From handling truffles, wine and olive oil in Istria to oysters and sailing tours in the south.

But above all, Kiki shares her many experiences in Croatia, spanning almost 50 years. Professional encounters and childhood memories come together in episode 3 of Logbuch.
