Dating back to the 13C, Lasko Castle has experienced many changes of ownership and various uses during its long history, right up to its current incarnation as a romantic, gourmet restaurant. We recommend one of the tasting menus (of various lengths) in order to appreciate Marko Pavčnik’s cuisine to the full. This chef pays careful attention to sustainability, sourcing his ingredients from a local eco-farm, as well as foraging and using every part of an animal (the so-called “nose-to-tail” approach). The smoked trout served with an elderflower sauce is sublime, while every course has its own identity and character. The extensive wine list focuses on Slovenia – try one of the whites from Styria, a region that produces wines of real character.
