Gault&Millau's review 2026

High above the city, with a view of the Drava River and the green scenery of Pohorje, top-quality seafood ingredients meet creative boldness. Already a cute greeting from the kitchen, salmon tartare in a tender yoghurt sauce with boiled buckwheat porridge, is a combination of freshness and lightness. An aquarium with lobsters and daily fresh fish on ice confirm that they bet on quality and selected raw materials. The scallops were prepared in three versions – au gratin with cheese, lightly grilled with a few drops of olive oil and, as a climax, baked and sprinkled with grated black truffles. Tasting this 'tris' with freshly baked mini croissants was a real journey through different dimensions of textures and flavors. The salmon fillet came in the company of a scallop on a bed of creamy polenta with chanterelles. The plate, where the sea and the land meet, is a real palette of flavors and colors. The dessert was a surprise: a mini cake of baked cheesecake, placed on a rolled and slightly burnt egg white for a playful texture, accompanied by ice-cold and aromatic jurke sorbet, strawberry tart, rhubarb mousse, chocolate mousse and fresh blueberries. The result? A plate like a canvas that first captivated the eye, and then conquered the taste.
