Ana Ros

A personal chef monograph, and the first book, from globally-acclaimed chef Ana Ro of Hia Franko in Slovenia

Set near the Italian border in Slovenia's remote Soa valley, in the foothills of mountains and beside a turquoise river full of trout, Ana Ro tells the story of her life. Through essays, recollections, recipes, and photos, she shares the idyllic landscape that inspires her, the abundant seasonal ingredients from local foragers, the tales of fishing and exploring, and the evolution of her inventive and sophisticated food at Hia Franko - where she has elevated Slovenian food and become influential in the global culinary landscape.
