On Thursday, 23 September 2021, the new Michelin awards for Slovenia are to be announced. After the enormous success of last year, when the restaurant Hiša Franko received two stars, five restaurants received one star each, as well as 46 other ratings being awarded, we may look forward to another affirmation of Slovenia’s high gastronomic standards this year.
The Michelin awards are proof that Slovenia is a uniquely interesting gastronomic destination, offering a plethora of exceptional culinary experiences in excellent restaurants led by top chefs, who are masterfully combining Slovenian culinary traditions with modern trends in a sustainable way.
Michelin is distinguished by its 120-year tradition and its well-established rating system based on five criteria: the quality of the ingredients used, mastery of flavour and cooking techniques, the personality of the chef in their cuisine, the ratio of value for money and level of consistency between visits.
In the meantime, we invite you to visit Taste Slovenia, a special website dedicated to amazing stories of Slovenian gastronomy (which just yesterday got awarded for best user experience at WEBSI, the biggest competition for digital projects in Slovenia).
