We discovered Siesta, a local bar in Tivat run by father Ano and son Karlo. They have great burgers and we always like finding a local place to hang during the season. They have darts, so all the cruisers come on Monday afternoons.
I had wondered why we couldn’t order food after 6 pm, and learned that Ano (the chef) left every day at that time to get to Palmon Bay, a resort on the other side of the bay, where he plays piano. After talking further, he invited us to come along one night.
What an unexpected treat! During winter, he’s set up in the lounge just outside the restaurant. We were the first ones to sit, but soon the lounge was completely full as people came out of the restaurant and stopped for a final drink before heading back to their rooms. Ano played everything from Autumn Leaves (a personal favorite), to Herbie Hancock, to Billy Joel, and everything in between. His voice is just as good as his playing. We can’t wait to come back next spring or summer with the boat, when he’ll be playing on the rooftop terrace each night!
