Labyrinth of tastes

You might already noticed that JEFF is not just about music and concerts. Now it is the moment to discover the tasty world of the restaurant "Labirint", the place which organizes food workshops during JEFF. Thanks to Andrea (the owner) who, in a friendly way, told us something more about Labirint and its values we present you an explanation of the philosophy that inspires this particular kind of cuisine.




 Andrea, excited about JEFF



 

 This alternative restaurant located in the centre of Koper has a bit mysterious name: Labirint. When we arrived we immediately understood the reason why they chose this name: the place has different rooms and the disposition of the space is all looks like a labyrinth, we are still a bit lost there, having confused memories about rooms, colors, differently shaped chairs and tables. But, unlike in a labyrinth, the owners welcomed us in a very nice and kind atmosphere, so we felt also being at the right place – being lost here, equipped with quality food is not bad at all…


Labirint promotes a new, different way of preparing food, using homemade ingredients and offering products without preservatives or flavor enhances. Instead of white flour, they prefer spelt and rye flour or almond flour for cookies. So, if you would like to taste something different, natural and genuine you should come and try!



The cuisine is inspired by mostly Balkan culture, by personal experiences, by having mixed families around (Serbians, Bosnians and Slovenians). Three things are sure: they offer healthy dishes which are colorful and are accompanied by great wines. We should not forget about the specialties neither: a special kind of lasagna, salty pancakes with spinach and other dishes made with spelt.

The strength of this restaurant is its dishes and ambiance. Sitting inside the playful and modest interior design we hear now radio music, but they are planning to play instrumental music next year. Andrea catches the strict connection between food and music, in a very nice quote:  
“Good food in good company cannot go without good music”.
