"Ethnic Cuisine" Restaurants in Slovenia
Much more than a simple Gostilna. Tomaž and Krištof Bolka carefully tailor zeitgeist into their restaurant. Uroš Gorjanc provides the craftsmanship, making regional cuisine with a modern feeling. Exciting wines. Drivers, try the wonderful freshly squeezed juices.
Chef Ishikawa is a master of his craft. The base is Japanese, but European flavours are always vivid as well. The miso soup with crab is delightful, and the tuna steak is on point. The beverage accompaniment includes international wines and sake.
The stylish In-Treff is hidden in a beautiful, green courtyard. Urban-Mediterranean feel on the plates succeeds with chicken on crisp salads, steaks and good pasta dishes. The list of gin and tonics and sparkling cocktails is impressive.
Even after moving to a quieter part of the old town, the concept has remained the same. The pizza is still good, but the regulars also come for the meat dishes. Grilled lamb and especially the baked pork schnitzel are beloved dishes on the menu.
It's the kind of bistro you might find in Paris. The menu is clear, but has good, Mediterranean-inspired courses such as chicken fillet with lemon crust and mashed potatoes or rib-eye steak from Black Angus. The wine selection is also small and fine.
The restaurant in this centuries-old villa offers refined luxury. Guests are delighted with the fish cuisine. The menu includes octopus salad, shrimp risotto and freshly caught Adriatic fish, grilled or from the oven. An alternative is beef tagliata.
