The Art of Tasteful Living
THE ART OF
Tasteful Living It’s through the fusion of authentic Spanish food and drink, and unique, delicate decor that Nader and Tony, two pioneers in Luštica Bay town - developed Ciccio’s Tapas restaurant concept store, aiming to inspire a new dining and shopping experience that revolves around, what they describe as ‘The art of tasteful living!’ Already the proud owner of a couple of Luštica’s most beloved eateries - Villa Cesare and Tony’s bar - and a well-known figure around town, Tony is working with his partner Nader - owner of Home Glow store - to bring their vision to life and gift their latest concept to the community, and we’re here to tell you why it’s well worth a visit!

A PLACE OF GENUINE AUTHENTICITY
A TASTE OF SPAIN IN MONTENEGRO CICCIO’S AUTHENTIC SPANISH LIFESTYLE STORE
“We wanted to introduce a different lifestyle, an experience that revolves around our motto - The art of tasteful living!” When building a business Tony Haddad and Nader Kallini - the visionaries behind this new undertaking - understand that it is the little details that elevate an idea from good to great, and that to create a truly authentic experience for guests it is quality, rather than quantity, that is important. This can be seen in every aspect of both Ciccio’s Tapas bar and concept store. From the delightful selection of tapas favourites, down to the tastefully selected Sevillian decor, Ciccio’s - a nickname for Tony’s charming father - oozes with quality and, in Tony’s own words “accentuates the beauty of the details and highlights the little things that make a difference and stand out from the crowd!” When it came to selecting a location for his latest endeavour, Nader and Tony could not think of a better place than Luštica! They told us “Luštica is a community that values authenticity, as it is genuine and unique itself. Every detail is well thought out and impeccably designed for the utmost enjoyment. It simply stands out from anything that can be found in the region and offers an experience beyond anything else - which is just what we strive to do!” Ciccio’s fits seamlessly into this community in a way that has us asking, ‘Why not sooner!?’ This collaboration is another great example of a flourishing business partnership, formed within Luštica’s community.
“Everything from the tiles used in our interior spaces to the spices, recipes, food and wines we serve have been carefully picked and sourced from the heart of Spain.” Authentically Iberian and simply bursting with delightful, mouth-watering Spanish classics, Ciccio’s menu is the true definition of quality over quantity. Serving up tapas, small but perfectly crafted portions of authentic Spanish flavours catering for group of friends, family, and kids, or as they say the perfect hang out. Sourcing only the highest quality ingredients, imported from Spain, Ciccio’s is swiftly becoming a favourite with residents and guests alike! Tuck into guest favourites camarones al Ajillo - shrimp in garlic sauce - or mouth-watering albondigas - meatballs in a rich garlic and tomato sauce - and pair any dish with a bottle of the finest wine or signature sangria! All this can be enjoyed outside in the Mediterranean sunshine, with spectacular views across the Adriatic Sea, or inside the tastefully decorated restaurant, full of charm and unique decor! If you see something you like, then why not make your way next door to Ciccio’s store and pick out a unique piece for yourself!
