Generally, in Slovenia flavours are influenced by the neighbour countries such as Italy, Austria, Hungary and Croatia, but in combination with local tradition Slovenian cuisine has its own character. Unfortunately, due to limited free time, we didn’t manage to try many things. Kremna Rezina, one of Slovenia’s traditional sweets, is simply an unforgettable experience! It is perfect for vanilla lovers and it is made from whipped cream, vanilla cream and two very thin crisp pastry layers. A light creamy vanilla flavour that melts in your mouth, overlooking Lake Bled, is something we highly recommend. 

For our lunch we chose the traditional bar-restaurant Lacni Kekec in Kranjska Gora. There you will taste authentic Slovenian cuisine in a fairytale location, as the area is at the foot of the mountain, very close to the winter ski slopes that in summer is an endless oasis. We were particularly impressed by the decorative style of the restaurant, with the dominant element of the wooden construction, creating a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff is very kind and helpful willing to assist us in our choices. You can enjoy delicious dishes such as traditional pies, juicy burgers, various choices of meats, colourful salads and grilled vegetables. We mainly chose dishes based on meat but it has many more choices for all tastes. The portions are large enough so we suggest that you do not overdo it with your order.
