About
In 2009, "Toplik" was awarded with the prestigious "Golden Crown" Award, for the restaurant with the best fish farming in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The award was given by the B&H Association of Hoteliers and Tourismologists.The story about Toplik began in 1997, when we initiated construction of the fishpond. Everything started from the source of potable water, in the vicinity of the facility, whose quality deserves special attention. This is high-quality water with invariable quantity, quality and temperature throughout a year, which directly affects the fish quality. Natural surroundings, homemade food and pleasant atmosphere make this place ideal for leisure and relaxation.The fishpond has a small capacity but it includes all phases of the production process from the production of juvenile fish to the intake fish. We breed three species of trout: California trout (Salma gairdneri), brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) and local rainbow trout (Salma trutta). The fish farm and supporting infrastructure had been built in stages, consistent with financial situation, until 2002 when we built a small cottage with four tables. This is when our first experience with catering began, at first timidly, now more confidently. The cottage/terrace turned into a grand restaurant, in terms of size, quality of offer and good standing.Great part of the overall menu comes from our own resources and it falls under a category of homemade food. Our goal is to stimulate domestic production and offer a wide range of healthy products which are the guaranty of prosperity of this region and country as a whole. Toplik is known for the offer of the season homemade food. You cannot imagine the joy of our guests when as a side dish they get authentic homemade aivar or lukmira with the fresh spring onion just picked from the garden. At the same time, we are merging traditional and international, so in our menu you will find a homemade maize porridge but also a first-rate beefsteak; you can relax listening to the soft sounds of blues, but you can also sing along with the traditional folk music. In summer, you will find pleasant shade by the brook, while during winter you can enjoy warm and cozy atmosphere by the fireplace. Toplik is an ongoing process, and we hope that with your suggestions and criticism you will help us improve Toplik and make it all the more pleasant. After eight years of work we can proudly say that we have hosted people from all the continents, and, I hope, justified the confidence you have been giving us. The fish farm, the restaurant, and the overall image that Toplik holds today wouldnt be the same without contribution of all the members of our family, our dear friends, and our loyal guests, who instilled plenty of love in this place. And this is where the magic of Toplik lays.
