Pri Vodniku, Ljubljana, Slovenia

Pri Vodniku - recently opened higher class restaurant, on Vodnikova street, just outside of center in Ljubljana. A recommendation. Named after famous author Valentin Vodnik.


Natali Bezan (Bežan) - working for
Linea Directa, developing direct marketing business in technology sector in EMEA region. Helping big IT companies reach larger number of partners and customers. Her roots are Prekmurje, but she was born and raised in Ljubljana. She's related to architect Marjan Bezan. Graduate and post graduate (soon) at EF, as a student worked at Tobacna - promoting unhealthy living ;), at Solos (back office job), went for 2 months to India, came back and via Adecco found job at IBM. It was a rather interesting story: 7AM she came home from a party, 8AM received a call from Adecco, 11AM had the interview at IBM PC division and landed the job the same day. As IBM PC division was sold to Lenovo, she left Lenovo to join Linea Directa. She likes traveling very much (India, Morocco, Turkey, ...), she was an active acrobatic rock'n'roll dancer until she got injured, loves adrenalin and will start jumping from airplanes soon, but hates speed driving. My name is red by Orhan Pamuk is the book she adores, while finding Carlos Castaneda also intriguing. One day she will significantly improve situation in orphanages all around the world, while her motto remains "carpe diem".


Fabulous look of the cake was matched by its taste.


Right next to the restaurant there's a not so common scene in urban cities: wild animals in a private garden. Prison?
