City restavracija, BTC, Ljubljana, Slovenia

City building in BTC City. These 13 floors are Slovenian HQ to some prominent global brands such as Microsoft and Nike. Besides the restaurant on the top floor and restaurant Pri Stricku, employees working in this building don't really have much choice to go for a decent lunch in the near vicinity.

Miha Modic is working in IT department at NLB, biggest bank in Slovenia. After successful switch to EUR currency, he took a well deserved longer break in Brazil and upon return got himself neck deep involved in Temenos Globus project. He lived 10 years in Germany where he studied at Mannheim University, worked as a freelance programmer and also for Ciao.de and Deutsche Boerse, before coming back to his homeland. Wikinomics and Good to Great were the latest books he's read and with extra time and money he would set up the best cooking portal on the planet. It's easy to guess that he is an avid cook - practicing most of the time making lunches and dinners to his Brazilian wife and young daughter as well as to his many friends. IT an cooking go well hand in hand. According to Miha, Genius Bar in Apple Retail Stores is a severe overstatement. What's really so Genius about it?


From the restaurant there's fascinating view over Ljubljana toward
Kamnik Alps. And you are not allowed to take photos. Where did this one came from then ...
