Druga Violina, Ljubljana, Slovenia

Druga Violina - "Good locally grown produce, a simple short menu of Slovene classics, top location in the city's old town, but there's a twist in the tale with the 'other violin' (as the English translation of the name goes). It's actually a project for people with special needs, who produce much of the food on farmland near Ljubljana and also work as waiting staff in the restaurant itself. Come and see what it's all about, while enjoying one of the fresh local dishes either in the rustic dining room or on the delightful cobbled pavement outside." - by InYourPocket
