Odprta Kuhna - Open Kitchen

Today, we’re talking about one of Ljubljana’s greatest success stories—one that started as a local food event and became a national movement. If you’ve ever wandered through the Central Market on a sunny Friday, following the smell of sizzling meat, truffles, or freshly baked burek, you’ve already found it: Odprta Kuhna, or Open Kitchen. This episode features interviews with Open Kitchen founder, Lior Kochavy; British former expat, writer Sam Baldwin; and American poet and traveler, Anna Rose Welch.To learn more about Open Kitchen, click here: https://www.odprtakuhna.si/en/about-us/To learn more about Sam Baldwin and his book on living in Slovenia, "Dormice and Moonshine," click here: https://breghouse.com/2024/05/20/book-launched-dormice-moonshine-falling-for-slovenia-is-out/To learn more about Anna Rose Welch, click here: https://theadroitjournal.org/2018/11/12/conversations-with-contributors-anna-rose-welch/The Ljubljana Podcast is sponsored by Open Kitchen and Hotel Mrak, my preferred hotel in Ljubljana.
