Pension Resje Restaurant Bohinjska Bistrica

Worth the Trip

By Emily

This place defines hidden gem and off the beaten path! A few turns up a hillside, this cozy family restaurant is worth the trip. It was recommended by our host as a place that sourced local food. On a Sunday evening at around 5pm we got the last table in one of two rooms filled with fun loving locals. The waiter was exceptionally kind, attentive and helpful in recommended dishes. It was not an extensive menu but the descriptions of the handful of offerings were mouth watering, with creative accompaniments. We had both soups – the soup of the day (creamy mushroom) and the standard beef broth with noodles. Both were excellent. We shared two entrees: the wild boar and chicken breast. I wish I could remember the accompaniments but they were so plentiful and varied that it’s hard to recall other than cranberries, cheese strudels, foie grad, and yummy sauces. It was all so very tasty and filling. We were ful but had to try desert so opted for the raspberry cake which was a light cheesecake style with crumbly crust and gelatin style raspberry filling served with tarragon/white chocolate ice cream. So good! We look forward to going back to try all the other dishes.
