Smartno Pri Litiji, Slovenia
KUHLA, krčma na gradu
Set within the historic grounds of Bogenšperk Castle near Šmartno pri Litiji, KUHLA operates in the krčma (tavern) tradition that has anchored rural Slovenian hospitality for centuries. The setting alone situates it within a longer story about how the country's interior regions have preserved ingredient-led cooking when the capital pulled toward European fine-dining conventions. A practical stop on any serious tour of Slovenia's lesser-visited culinary interior.
