The Best of »Falstaff Internationaler Restaurantguide 2023«
A modern restaurant with great taste. The dishes are masterfully designed by Massimiliano Alajmo, who offers a creative cuisine with rich, authentic and avant-garde flavours. The "cappuccino al nero" with octopus and potato foam is a must-try, as is the risotto with saffron and liquorice. Excellent wine list.
Ana Roš is considered one of the best chefs in the world. And rightly so, as she is a master of flavours. She prepares courses full of depth, beauty and creativity. Of course, the wine pairing is also of the highest level. Delicious home-aged cheeses.
An elegant restaurant with a refined and intimate interior. Deliberately prepared dishes based on recipes from the territory, as well as small and interesting innovations, created by the experienced hand of Chef Giancarlo Perbellini. The fabulous creations of the chef are to be recommended.
The two young chefs Matteo Metullio and Davide De Pra offer a creative and conscious cuisine with meat, fish and vegetable dishes perfectly prepared. A must try is the Harrysotto. Wine list with wines from the area and beyond.
Dishes with flair, regionality and creativity. Distinctive flavours and refined, excellent ingredients make for a profound gastronomic experience that bears the signature of the Portinari brothers. The service is outstanding. Wonderful wine list.
This high quality restaurant is of a unique and distinguished nature. Chef Emanuele Scarello has created three tasting menus: Godia, Istria and Rovinj. The use of the best produce is important, sustainability has a very high priority.
Gostilna (meaning inn) is an understatement, here hides one of the best and most creative restaurants in Slovenia. Host Tomaž Kavcic is bubbling over with ideas. He presents his plates as a modern contrast to the historic castle atmosphere.
Nothing is reminiscent of the original building, the guest is amazed at the modern architecture in a small village. The kitchen combines down-to-earthness, sea aromas and creative – sometimes offbeat – ideas. Beautifully composed plates. One of the best in Slovenia.
The flowery terrace has flair, and the staff is extremely attentive. Rudolf Štefan, who pays close attention to the provenance of the produce, provides very special gastronomic delights. The tasting menu has its price, but is worth every euro.
The cosy cottage atmosphere does not suggest it, but with Luka Košir an extremely creative mind is at work here. Regional organic ingredients and vegetables from the home garden are essential for him. The two tasting menus change constantly depending on inspiration.
A relaxed ambience with attention to detail welcomes guests and the refined, contemporary cuisine between sea and land provides a rich experience of taste, tradition and quality. The wine list is no less impressive with a refined selection.
One of the best places for seafood cuisine. A mix of modern and contemporary cuisine with reinterpreted dishes and traditional recipes from the Veneto. The attentive service is like a pampering programme and the carefully selected wine list offers many good white wines.
Arva is a tribute to the gastronomic heritage of Italy: a creative and sustainable approach to cooking combined with the best seasonal ingredients. Typical and contemporary are mixed together here. A fascinating and majestic place overlooking the Venetian streets. An experience.
A country house on the border with Slovenia, nestled between the Colli Orientali del Friuli and the Collio. The cuisine offered is tied to the region and refined by creative traits, focusing on the ingredients. Well-made wine list with wines from the area and beyond.
A tasting menu proposed by the chef, based on flavours and products from both the mountains and the Adriatic. Original and unusual combinations. The dishes are by no means ordinary, but complex and tasty. Wonderful wine list.
For a Caribbean feeling in a luxury resort, you no longer need to go overseas, the island of Brač can do that just as well. The cuisine of Ante Udovičić is accordingly upscale. Sea urchins, oysters and Brač lamb are served with excellent wines.
In one of the oldest cafes in Venice, the Alajmo brothers are the brains behind the refined creations, perfectly executed by Silvio Giavedoni and Sergio Preziosa. They are ambassadors of regional produce and Italian cuisine with a modern twist.
With Uroš Fakuč, the produce speaks for itself. He leaves fish as pure as possible, refined only with a few ingredients. In the wine cellar rests probably one of the most complete collections of Slovenian wines with bottles from the Vipava Valley, the Karst and Brda.
Located in the countryside with a view of the sea is this gem of fine dining. In the kitchen, the young chef Luka Goleš creates the finest Mediterranean cuisine, putting into play both the ingredients and the flavours of another era. Excellent wine pairings.
One of the most creative cuisines in Istria of the highest quality. Danijel Dekić combines fresh, regional market produce with a fine hand. You choose from three menus, one of which revolves around lobster, one is vegetarian. Danijel's wife Tjitske provides the best wines.
