Meet the natives


If you’ve ever visited the Open kitchen, you’ve surely noticed the lines, forming at each corner of Pogačarjev trg. The sweet-toothed visitors cannot imagine their visit without some sweet šmorn (kaiserschmarrn), while many others cannot resist the lovely aromas of traditional Egyptian dishes - tauk and shawarma.

The offers of Dežela okusov and Dvor Jezeršek have been a hit since the very beginning of the Open kitchen. Meet Robert and Vid, the supervisors of the hot pans, sizzling away at the corners of Pogačarjev trg.

While every regular knows their ever cheerful faces, the time has come to get to know them better:
