The gourmet dinner experience
March 20, 2025
Indulge in a high-end culinary adventure, taste the best of Slovenian gastronomy, and enjoy a gourmet evening with friends – without breaking the bank. 🍷✨
THE GOURMET DINNER EXPERIENCE
Experience the finest flavours of Slovenian haute cuisine in a special evening designed just for international students! Inspired by Slovenia’s restaurant week – a prestigious event where the country’s top fine dining restaurants curate exclusive menus twice a year – we are bringing this gourmet experience to you at a student-friendly price.
WHAT IS SLOVENIA’S RESTAURANT WEEK?
Every spring and autumn, the most renowned Slovenian restaurants take part in this event, offering specially crafted menus that showcase their culinary excellence. Known for its refined gastronomy and premium service, Restaurant week is a celebration of flavours and creativity, making high-end dining more accessible – though still at a luxury price point.
At our Gourmet dinner experience, we’re recreating the essence of Restaurant week – a carefully curated three-course menu, featuring elegant dishes, a touch of fine wine, and an unforgettable dining atmosphere. And the best part? This exclusive experience is available for just 10,00 EUR + 1 student meal voucher!
THE MENU
Just like in Restaurant week, we’re offering two menu options:
1. MENU – MEAT MENU
🥣 Starter: homemade creamy pumpkin soup
🥩 Meat menu: slow-braised beef cheeks in wine sauce, served with creamy mashed potatoes
🍷 Wine pairing: 1 dcl of premium Slovenian red wine to complement the main course
🍰 Sweet surprise: Because no fine dining experience is complete without dessert!
2. MENU – FISH MENU
🥣 Starter: homemade creamy pumpkin soup
🐟 Fish menu: salmon fillet, paired with creamy mashed potatoes
🍷 Wine pairing: 1 dcl of premium Slovenian rose wine to complement the main course
🍰 Sweet surprise: Because no fine dining experience is complete without dessert!
