Hiša Franko

Ana Roš’s restaurant outside Kobarid — three Michelin stars, and the reason many people come to the valley.

Why visit

The clearest statement anywhere of what Slovenian cooking can be, and it is specific to this valley rather than transferable.

About

Hiša Franko is the most internationally known restaurant in Slovenia. Ana Roš cooks a tasting menu rooted specifically in this valley — its cheeses, its trout, its wild plants, its cured meats — and the restaurant holds three Michelin stars. It is in a house outside Kobarid with rooms upstairs, which matters because the menu runs long and there is no public transport. Reservations open months ahead and it is closed for part of the winter; booking is not optional.
