Summer in the city!

When the city warms up just right and the air smells like salt on skin, lemon in a glass, and that unmistakable aroma that grabs your nose and pulls you straight to the nearest food stall, we know it’s time for Open Kitchen in its most summery form.

Fridays at Pogačarjev trg aren’t just days of the week. They’re little holidays we celebrate with no fuss but full hearts. With sunhats on our heads, smiles on our faces, and all the time in the world (at least for a few hours).

Now we run between stalls. Honestly, sometimes more than once. First for bao, then for štruklej, and then — just one more bite we have to try. Some say they’re only coming for lunch. Then the gelato catches them. And a cocktail. And that smell that pulls them right back. And they stay.

Here, summer breathes differently. In the rhythm of spices and conversations that are in no hurry. In glances exchanged above tables that long ago stopped being “ours” and became shared. In those late afternoons when the sun refuses to set and it feels like this is the moment we should bottle up for winter.

If you ask us where we love to be most, it’s here. Among laughter, warmth, and all those little pleasures that make summer feel grand.

Come by, take a seat, have a taste.

And if you feel like staying until evening, you’re absolutely right.
