VENUES
Gostilna dela
You can start already there for breakfast
but it’s their lunch we recommend
in this socially responsible venue. As
a spin-off of their programme where
they create working opportunities for
people lacking social skills, education
or bear any other social stigma, they
offer a daily different meat, vegetarian
and fish dishes to satisfy all the working
crowds surrounding their area. Come
early to get your spot because the word
ef their excellence is already very out
there.
Bazilika
The woman in charge, Darja Končarevič,
now has a mini-empire of healthy,
mostly vegetarian, innovative dishes in
5 establishments all around downtown
(Bistro, Križanke, Miklošičeva, Cankarjev
dom, and now also Bife). A perfect
feel-good sit-down for any time of the
day and instagram itches. We love their
occasional gourmand escapades like
cevicheria, Japanese nights and cosy
brunches.
Le petit cafe
The names says it’s small but the reputation
is not: delicious cakes, cute
interior, lovely breakfasts and lunches.
We heart their signature caffe latte - Le
Petit bela kava (which is not even coffee
but … be surprised). And no, they don’t
speak French.
Monstera
Nothing monstrous about this place
(the name actually comes from Latin
where Monstera deliciosa is a plant you
probably have in your office and it’s on
display here as well). Just pure good
food prepared by (not just) TV-famous
chef Bine Volčič: amazing lunches
Mon-Sat and 7-course tasting dinners
Thu-Sat with just “two menus - take it
or leave it”. If you dig Ana Roš, she’ll tell
you that’s where she’d dine when in Ljubljana
- enough said.
