slovenia and today's theme is seafood i got a request for my cousin to try some mussels here
so we're gonna look for that an octopus burger and whatever other seafood we could find
let's go check it out
and this is for my cousin michael and his wife anna in portland oregon and it's where the famous
slovenian actor was eating last time so you know it's good it's the same this is so good
for sure this is our typical easter egg estriol christian yes eastern australia
okay
and something else but we cannot yeah
let's go try them seven euro for a plate of mussels they were six euro last time they
put some tape over the price but i was happy he just kept scooping them on there hefty portion
very good i licked the sauce off them yeah i get in there
very good are you gonna try this yeah yeah go ahead okay i'm gonna fist here
i should jump in sooner i recommend it it's disappearing i guess you like it i has i guess
your cousin gave you a really great advice to try the mussels yeah and look at the sauce
down there yeah that's what you want look at that sauce that's what you want with the bread
um
now you need this can you read this
oh gilnea rob cheeky lemonade is a lot of octopus being cooked up that makes me hungry just looking
burger
thank you you're welcome oh it's beautiful already
peppers peppers some zucchinis then we have this chicken this is the octopus
those cherry tomatoes yep four halves what's that uh it's it's a mix a bit of a bit of
salad uh usually we put some mayonnaise on top but the madam doesn't want it so okay
i've been excited to try this one for weeks
the bun is amazing it's like it doesn't even exist it's so soft it made of charcoal i don't know
and they got a lot of octopus on there fresh green and a lot of mayo this is
really nice burger i think you'd like it everything is falling out go protect
don't spill it everywhere
it's good maybe i will get one too especially if you're a mayo lover this is the burger for you you
know i'm a male lover they put mayo on both sides of the bun and then they put more mayo at the end
wow but how good is that bun it's very fluffy it's like a salad and a burger
and everything in there very healthy it's really good eight euros nine euros nine euros probably
the most expensive burger at the open kitchen but the best part and eat as much as you'd like i
think that's the discovery of the year at the open kitchen everything i eat at open kitchen is really
good but this is something unique i've never had an octopus burger it's crazy but it's delicious
and now for a special segment from our special guest did you find i found let's be not perta
looks very healthy very very healthy nuts and veggies and
fresh salmon oh seafood edition good i'm really excited about this seafood
now it was time for something more traditional some grilled shrimp
grilled shrimps oh yummy 6.50 how many of them five expensive they look good though
they look so crunchy well they're still so hot though i went with the grilled instead
of the fried i figured it'd be better on this hot day i agree can i eat the skin i don't think so
can you if it's good enough but nah no i think it's too big look at this beautiful dog
this is the car's chopper slovenian breed it's just not the weather for these kind of dogs
eat it with the famous slovenian sauce well i guess it's italian sauce
for the name secretary slovenians might say trista
is actually slovenian so let's not get into that today let's just eat the food
i miss grilled shrimp i don't think i've had it since morocco
you're gonna eat one of these with me yeah can you peel it
no sauce you want sauce i didn't know he wanted sauce
of course i guess you have to eat another one what do you think good
very shrimpy i like it me too they don't give you bread with it no that's a shame that looks better
much better with lemon and parsley and garlic i'm talking with my mouthful
yeah way better we just need a glass of white wine and a piece of bread with the butter
this place was really busy the sardines seemed popular i think they're sardines sardines
sardines sardines many baby ones now the next part we've seen in the first episode of open kitchen
but i had to try it for myself and after the chicken cooks the uh the calamari and the paella
now for the original first food we ever got an open kitchen the paella
last time hendra's sister got it i didn't get a try she ate it all
so today i'm gonna end up my seafood feast with this to hopefully fill me up a bit that's really
good the rice is nice and smooth and not like crunchy or old well seasoned good stuff here
still really hot huh good spices it's filling too it's hearty
a lot of the only seafood things i got were pretty light you know
even the octopus burger's less filling than a cheeseburger yeah and we only had five of those
shrimps mussels are like nothing so finally some carbs and some energy here goldberg
and here's our calamari our fourth seafood of our journey we showed the fifth one from kaya
it's been a good journey very tasty journey
now i know it's not seafood but you gotta get the pregnant lady dessert what's this called
yeah food sweet dessert slovenian romanian austrian okay
thank you what's this called shmoren shmorin looks good
it's traditional slovenian dessert it's usually eggs flour milk sugar it's like
dough for the pancakes how it better for the pancakes but then you just kind of mix it in a pan
it's tasty i know this is why i ask you to bring me some and then here you have different kind of
sauces but traditionally you just like sprinkle it with sugar i had that too yeah but you why did
you pick a nutella for me and apples for you and they also had forest berries i like how hot it is
it's warm it's fresh they were just taking it out of the pan again that's great you like it
it's so greasy and pancakey exactly and some smaller pieces are very crunchy yeah i like that
oh that was to show the camera not to feed me okay okay you i think no sometimes you can add raisins
i don't think there's any raisins in this one no i didn't find any but good feeling slovenian dessert
yeah we have energy after this one that's what we're missing
i think that's perfect perfect pregnancy craving satisfying dish yeah it's really good
so warm and gooey i'm glad you like it what's it called smoren not to be confused with schmores
s'mores nothing like s'mores way better than s'mores don't be an america hater i love america
i'm gonna have half american baby this is not regular s'more this is yeah yes gorshmore
apparently they have secret ingredient not exactly seafood but
fish for dessert isn't good seafood dessert sure we could get some seafood
cake but i think the secret ingredient is caramel caramelized sugar traditionally
in slovenia we just sprinkled the sugar on the top but here i think they caramelize it
that was our seafood adventure here at the ljubljana slovenia open kitchen we spent
just under 30 euro over that with water and dessert but everything was really great today
for me the best was the octopus burger for the price for the taste for the freshness of the
vegetables the shrimp were great paella was filling and the mussels were a great
start to our seafood adventure thank you for joining us and we'll see you next time at the
open kitchen the goal is to eat at every place here so hope you come along see you
