About Štalca pri Vodniku

Štalca pri Vodniku, in the Šiška district north-west of the centre, has red Carniolan carnations on the windowsills and a reputation for its bread. The house speciality is veal with potatoes boiled, roughly mashed and fried with onion, following the recipe in Kuharske bukve, the cookbook of 1799 linked with the poet Valentin Vodnik. It opens from Tuesday to Sunday. Our advice: book for Sunday lunch, and ask your waiter what to have for dessert.
