Michelin Guide highlighted the best Slovenian restaurants for
the fifth time in a row, reaffirming the top quality,
sustainability and diversity of Slovenian gastronomy. Hiša
Franko, under the guidance of chef Ana Roš, continues to shine
brightly with three Michelin stars. What sets Hiša Franko apart
even further is its Green Star, emphasizing its commitment to
sustainability. This dual recognition places Hiša Franko among a
select group of just 33 restaurants worldwide honoured with both
distinctions. Ana Roš also stands as one of only eight female chefs
globally to hold three Michelin stars and one of two chefs
worldwide to combine three Michelin stars with the Green
Star.
Among the other standout restaurants, Milka under chef
David Žefran maintains its impressive two Michelin stars. The guide
also highlights eight restaurants awarded one Michelin star,
including the newcomer Pavus Restaurant, led by Chef Mark Pavčnik. Additionally, eight
restaurants have earned a prestigious Michelin Green Star, with Galerija
Okusov and Chef Marko
Magajne as the newest recipient. In the Bib Gourmand
category, ten restaurants have been acknowledged for their
excellence, with newcomers Faladur Restaurant & Winebar,
Kodila, Lalu, Majerca Restaurant and Triangel Restaurant joining
