MICHELIN Guide Slovenia : Meet four chefs of Ljubljana’s food scene

"A few steps from the Archer’s Tower, this Bib Gourmand staple brings true gostilna spirit to the heart of the castle plaza: delicious, generous food rooted in local ingredients and served in a relaxed, family-run atmosphere. Operated by the Jezeršek family—four brothers and their father in impeccable blue shirts who joke that you can call them “The Lakers”—it channels decades of hospitality, from patriarch Franci’s excellent homemade cured meats and his 1980s garage-to-catering origin story to head chef Luka Jezeršek’s playful twists on Slovenian classics. I enjoyed the sense of humor in dishes like a miniaturized potica and potatoes transformed into a delicate, fluffy sorbet." - Le Guide MICHELIN
