Gregor Jelnikar (Georgie Bistro)
On the occasion of the third anniversary of his Bistro Georgie, we sat down with Chef Gregor Jelnikar to talk about the journey so far and the steps they’re planning for the future. In recent years, the bistro has established itself among both locals and international visitors as a reliable, high-quality choice for a bistro-style lunch or an elegant tasting dinner. He shared the changes they’ve experienced along the way, the values and goals they remain committed to, and what we can expect in the near and more distant future.

We sat down with Simona Česen, 2025 national sommeliership champion and head sommelier at Ljubljana’s Wine Bar Šuklje, to talk about what her job really involves, the skills it demands, and how sommelier competitions work. In an engaging conversation full of insights, we also explored the rising role of women in the wine world, the evolution of Slovenia’s and the global wine scene, and how sommeliers help share knowledge and expand public appreciation, playing a key part in cultivating a richer wine culture.

Locals recommend
When we say, "Let's go for coffee!", we don't mean we're going to have a black, bitter, caffeinated drink originating from Ethiopia, which has (even more successfully than the British) colonised the entire world. No. What we mean is: "Let's go somewhere and sit for hours while ordering some (non-alcoholic) drink."
Katarina is an anthropologist who loves exploring different cultures and lifestyles. Although Ljubljana isn't her favourite city in the world, she has grown fond of its many excellent cafés – and compiled her favourites in an article.
