In recent years, Ljubljana has developed a lot in terms of cuisine. The offer is growing, the competition is getting tougher, and Lakotniki and Lakotnice are happily licking each other and spending more and more time deciding where to go for dinner. The In Your Pocket guide made the problem a little easier for us. In March, they conducted a survey of the best restaurants in Ljubljana. Just as you can't compare Pink Floyd to Tchaikovsky, you can't lump all restaurants in the same basket either. The In Your Pocket team is aware of this, which is why the voting for the best restaurant took place by category

The film festival in Motovun, a town in the north-west of Istria, is admittedly a rather small event of its kind, but nevertheless it is not to be missed. At the Motovun Film Festival 2016, it will be possible to see many films that did not make it to major film events such as the Cannes or Berlin festivals due to strong competitors. In addition to the screenings, talks with the filmmakers will also be organized. The festival will take place from July 26 to 30. The price of 10 tickets is €20. You can see the schedule of lectures here.

In the meantime, you will also have to climb the Murovica hill, which is 734 m high.

A few days after it was reported that Germany was producing so much electricity that prices began to slide below zero, Portugal set a new benchmark for renewable energy. She managed to power the entire country for four days in a row exclusively with electricity obtained from renewable energy sources. The CEO of SolarPower Europe told The Guardian that today it is seen as a remarkable achievement, but the trend is moving so fast towards the use of renewable energy that it is only a matter of a couple of years when Europe will be entirely powered by it alone , an environmentally friendly resource.

Good sound equipment and a rich line-up are complemented by an incredible location, which gives the festival a quality of a new dimension that even the biggest electronic music festivals in the world can hardly compete with. The event will be hosted by the Fort of Punta Christo, which, in the glow of flashing lights and the rhythms of electronic music, will help create an unforgettable experience. The leading musicians of the electronica scene will perform - from Massive Attack to Moodymann.

After last year's successful tour, David Gilmour, ex-guitarist and singer of Pink Floyd, returns to the music stage. Last year we had the opportunity to see him in Pula, but this year we will be able to go to his concert in Vienna. Three years ago, we were able to see a concert by Roger Waters, the second of the two singers of this group and the main author of the famous album The Wall. Although it is no longer possible to see the band in its original line-up, it is definitely worth tasting at least the remaining pieces of one of the most important psychedelic rock bands of all time.
