Situated in inland Slovenia, just a few kilometres from the border with Croatia, this is one of the most interesting restaurants in the region. Here, highly experienced owner-chef Jure Tomič has created an excellent network of suppliers from all over Slovenia. His meat and fish dishes are prepared with a modern, precise and technical touch that is unfussy and focuses on bringing out the full flavour of his ingredients. Traditional recipes and ingredients are reinterpreted with a personal twist: examples are the plum extract served with duck and the sweet “butter, honey and milk” dish that takes the ingredients of a typical local dessert and creates something new and original. The chef’s specialities include his Cake Debeluh, a beef tartare with meat macerated in a cold nutmeg broth, goose liver and quail egg spiced with coffee. You’ll have no problem finding the right wine to accompany your meal from the extensive wine list.
