Ljubljana suburb: Cooking Workshop with Local Chef

Join a cooking workshop in Ljubljana suburb Trebnje and learn to make traditional dishes with a modern twist. Get hands-on experience with authentic recipes and enjoy the food you make.
Join a cooking workshop in Ljubljana suburb Trebnje, less than half an hour drive from Ljubljana in unspoiled, green Dolenjska (historical Unterkrain or Lower Carniola), and learn to make authentic recipes passed down through generations. Get hands-on experience with traditional dishes prepared with a modern twist.

Hang out with your chef, share knowledge, and, of course, enjoy all the delicious food you make (or take it with you).

At Dobrote Dolenjske, we always offer our guests only the very best from the historical Carniola, today Dolenjska (Unterkrain/Lower Carniola) and Bela Krajina (Weißkrain/White Carniola).

Upon arrival, everyone puts on an apron and is welcomed with a choice of different local liqueurs or a freshly prepared organic herbal mocktail. After a warm welcome, we will take you on a quick tour of our space, introduce you to the story of winning awarded Dobrote Dolenjske, and dive right into cooking.

We offer many different cooking experience!

Some of them are:
Traditional ŠTRUKLJI (Rolled Dumplings)
Sweet & Savory Variations
We will be making traditional Dolenjska štruklji, along with classic cottage cheese and walnut fillings—and whatever else our culinary imagination cooks up.

POTICA, a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed (TSG) from Slovenia
We will bake traditional walnut, walnut-and-raisin, tarragon, and tarragon-cottage cheese poticas, all of which proudly carry the "Guaranteed Traditional Speciality" protection. For an extra sweet treat, we might even whip up a modern coconut version.

The Famous ČRNOMALJSKE PRESTE (Pretzels of Črnomelj)
The people of Črnomelj have been master pretzel-makers for centuries—a craft so essential to their identity that they are proudly nicknamed the "Prestarji" (Pretzel-makers). The most important, irreplaceable ingredients of these pretzels are good company, joy, fun, and pure enjoyment.

Traditional BELOKRANJSKA POGAČA (White Carniola Flatbread)
Our traditional flatbread, Belokranjska pogača, is protected under the "Guaranteed Traditional Speciality" designation. Following local custom, this bread is never cut with a knife—instead, it is shared with you by breaking it apart by hand.

The Unique BUCKWHEAT POTICA
Discover both yeasted and unyeasted versions.
Together, we will unlock the secrets and professional tips to make your buckwheat potica look beautiful and taste absolutely incredible.
You will discover how to transform local ingredients and traditional recipes into modern, high-end culinary dishes!

Learn how to turn simple ingredients and grains—such as buckwheat, millet, and barley—into culinary masterpieces. At the same time, you will master the art of flavor pairing and learn how to cook sustainably with a zero-waste or low-waste approach.
