The 'Pantry' attracts as much with its homey decor as with its Slovenian cuisine, executed with a modern touch. Several rooms in an ancient townhouse filled with rough-hewn tables and chairs, wooden floors and nostalgic bric-a-brac lead to a small garden. Expect less common meats on the menu: rabbit, lamb and žrebičkov z jurčki (colt with ceps; €24).
