Our Philosophy
At Hiša Franko, our cuisine is expressive, intense, and unorthodox. Our philosophy is simple: follow nature. Take what the season offers, combine the unexpected, absorb inspiration from our diverse, international team and never be afraid to take risks. It's an invitation to experience the incredible beauty of the Soča Valley through our eyes, our palates, and our hearts. We pride ourselves on being fiercely local and seasonal in our sourcing.

Every ingredient has a name, a face, a place. Our pantry consists of wild herbs, forest mushrooms, and mountain plants that are collected morning by morning by a single forager who knows the terrain by heart.
Trout comes from a local fishing family who tend the same waters where the endangered marble trout, Slovenia's native species, was once nearly lost. They found it again, hidden deep in the gorges of the Soča Valley, and now help protect it.
Seafood, once more present, is becoming rare on our menu. The health of the seas no longer allows for certainty, and so, like the tides, we adapt. The land offers its own abundance. We work with high-mountain dairies and farmers who raise the protected Drežnica goat, and when that is not possible, we source lamb from the same small community.
"In this harsh, remote, yet breathtakingly beautiful environment people have always lived off the land, rivers, forests, and fields. Take that away from me, and you take away, my voice."
