Galerija okusov, Kulinarični turizem in storitve, d.o.o.

"This excellent restaurant, whose name translates as a “gallery of flavours”, boasts an attractive setting surrounded by a park with an 18C Baroque palace (formerly Novo Celje castle) at its centre. The welcoming dining room is decidedly more contemporary in style than its surroundings, as is the cuisine served here, which is prepared from local ingredients using imaginative techniques and presented on a single tasting menu (usually 10 courses) from which guests can choose individual dishes as they please. Careful attention is paid to reducing food waste: the trout served with asparagus is also accompanied by chips made from fish skin, while the jus uses butter and other leftovers. Most of the wines on the impressive wine list are also available by the glass." - Michelin Inspector

MICHELIN Guide Slovenia : a local and wild gastronomy

"Halfway between Ljubljana and Maribor, the pleasant Lower Savinja Valley is covered with hops fields and large apple orchards. To find the Galerija okusov restaurant, you enter the Baroque Novo Celje Park and walk around its 1760 mansion, inspired by Schönbrunn Castle in Vienna. Set in an outbuilding surrounded by century-old trees, this restaurant with contemporary decor is one of the musts for food lovers visiting the region. Here, too, the food is inspired by nature and the best of the produce it yields. Marko Magajne, the 30-year-old chef, has been involved in the project since its inception. His ambition is to reinvent Slovenian cuisine, without neglecting family recipes, those that invariably provoke nostalgia. To achieve this, his approach is to create refined cuisine: "I never use more than three ingredients in a dish. It's a matter of harmony but also respect for the produce." - Le Guide MICHELIN
