JAZ by Ana Roš Poreč – Now Open
"When you eat at Hiša Franko, you can close your eyes and completely understand the environment around us: the raw, remote beauty of the Soča Valley. A landscape expressed through culinary vision, expressive, intense and unorthodox."
A Menu Written by Nature
Nestled in the lush Soča Valley, surrounded by towering mountains, ancient forests, and the emerald-green Soča River, Hiša Franko is more than a restaurant, it's a living, breathing expression of the land that surrounds us.
Situated just outside the town of Kobarid, in a rustic guesthouse whose legacy goes back to 1861, Hiša Franko has become a destination for culinary travelers from around the world. Under the direction of Chef Ana Roš, it has been on The World's 50 Best Restaurants list since 2017 and currently holds three Michelin stars.

Deeply connected to a community of foragers, shepherds, cheesemakers, hunters, and fishermen, our menu reflects the richness of our surrounding landscape. Trout, deer, goat, forest fruits, and wild plants feature prominently on our plates, as they have for generations. It is our way of listening to the land – a true culinary dialogue with nature.
