An eternal villa

Vila Podvin is eternal, because it survived a king and a marshal, and it was here that the Slovenian constitution was born. Now it has a new a new chef, whose culinary skills are reflected in every dish and who uses the finest seasonal and local ingredients to uniquely change tradition into modernity. We are delighted that eternal Vila Podvin once again has a high aim: to regain its Michelin Star!

Guests who are taken by the image and ambience of the villa will be delighted by unique, seasonal and attractive dishes, which change with the seasons of nature, ingredients and inspiration. Terrine from rabbit’s flan and local smoked bacon complement the rabbit paté and foie gras, egg yolk in homemade pasta sauce with sourdough bread and chestnuts, and the pink saddle of venison with pear filled with cooked bacon cream … Every visit is a reflection of the season, full of ideas, talent and flavours, perfect for a special trip to Gorenjska.
