Gault&Millau's review 2026

The beauty of the Brda landscape reveals all its charms in an idyllic homestead, where you can also spend the night. In the embrace of vineyards and homemade lemon brandy, you can easily enjoy a glass of their excellent wines on the terrace, and the kitchen soon smells seductive. The daily menu is short, written in chalk on a tablet, but no less promising – traditional Brda dishes with the addition of sea flavors shine in a creative, modern guise, and the flavors are harmoniously rounded and invite you to taste it. To greet you, they serve seasonal fig and melon in the embrace of a slice of guanciala, all refreshed by homemade tzatziki. The daily soup from the hands of experienced masters is enriched with swordfish cubes, dried tomatoes and homemade olive oil with parsley. Kabaj's homemade gnocchi with sausage impresses again and again – fried cottage cheese dumplings with marjoram are bathed in a sumptuous ragu made of homemade sausage and vegetables. The English roast beef for the main course is a real feast for the eyes and taste buds – juicy slices of meat are artfully shaped into a rose, accompanied by onion puree, Swiss chard and reduced red wine sauce that calls for a new bite. And then there's the sweet finale – a chocolate soufflé spiced with orange liqueur and caramel. A masterpiece!
