INTERVIEWS
What about Ljubljana’s foodie scene?
In past five years Ljubljana adopted so
many culinary innovations that it sometimes
outshines even its neighboring
capitals or at least stands against it. The
trend is definitely cosmopolitanism, to
represent its citizens gourmet novelties,
whether it is worldwide cuisine or
new ideas just like that. Nevertheless,
it’s true the offer could be even more

at the castle, and in the evening grab
some coffee and ice cream in the centre,
maybe in Hotel Slon or Zvezda, and
finish the night at the Opera bar or treat
yourself for a special occasion at Kolibri
bar with special blend of cocktails.
What are some of your favorite places to
dine?
I really like to go for a certain thing to
a certain place, for that something that
enchanted me for the time and left
memories forever. I take my coffee in
TOZD or cafe Čokl, gelato in Fetiche,
fried chicken wings at Gostilna na
gradu, Indian specialties at Maharaja,
glass of wine & snack before a show
at Vander, TaBar or Dvorni bar, warm
Prekmurje layer cake at Gujžina, masala
chai for a cold day break at Daktari,
burger at Pop’s place, weekday quick
lunch at Monstera and lazy weekend
lunch at Ramen by Maru, and beer in
Cutty Sark. And sushi - I hunt it wherever
it appears.
How about a gourmet weekend plan in
Ljubljana?
Apart from the plan you can make according
to my previous answer, I would
certainly visit Modern and National
gallery in the morning, in between stroll
through nearby Tivoli park, then lunch
