The semi-annual Restaurant Week will soon return to Slovenia for its fifth year. The event will see the country’s best chefs serve three-course meals that will set you back no more than 17 euros.

The (extended) autumn edition of the event will run from October 13 to October 22. A total of 97 food establishments are taking part this time around, including high-profile restaurants and inns like JB and Strelec (Ljubljana), Grič (Šentjošt nad Horjulom), and Debeluh (Brežice).

Only a few restaurants seem to be missing, most notably Hiša Franko, Mahorčič, Pikol, and Denk Monstera. The restaurants have been shortlisted for the event by Uroš Mencinger, a restaurant critic.
