At
first
glance,
this
is
an
inviting
eatery
and
wine
bar.
Here
are
the
positives:
the
service
was
efficient,
the
wine
list
extensive
and
comprehensive
(all
Slovenian
wines),
the
food
that
we
had
was
well
prepared.
I
had
carp
and
kid
of
goat,
my
friends
had
other
delightful
dishes,
such
as
sardines,
venison
sausage
and
beef
tartare.
Our
vegetarian
friend
had…
not
very
much.
Here's
where
the
missing
two
stars
come
in
–
there
was
not
a
single
dish
that
excluded
animal
protein
(yes
there
was
cheese,
which
doesn't
count
in
this
context).
When
we
asked
our
slightly
tired
waiter
to
advise,
he
suggested
to
take
the
meaty
bits
off
some
of
the
dishes,
leaving
salad
leaves
or
a
bit
of
vegetable,
presenting
a
solution
straight
from
1987
for
a
situation
that
should
not
occur
in
a
Western
urban
downtown
restaurant
in
2022.
Now,
we
know
that
this
bar
previously
had
a
good
offering
for
vegetarians.
Every
conservative
tapas
bar
in
the
world
does.
So
not
catering
to
people
who
don't
eat
meat
seems
to
have
been
a
political
decision
by
management
(who
assumedly
were
also
behind
the
pink
and
blue
genderised
toilet
doors
in
the
back,
disabled
people
get
a
green
door).
We
made
the
best
out
of
this
evening,
and
had
a
reasonably
good
meal
with
lots
of
wines
(whilst
TaBar's
wine
list
is
long
they
don't
actually
stock
all
that's
advertised
on
the
menu,
another
slight
annoyance.)
Unless
TaBar
becomes
more
inclusive
in
its
offering,
exclude
it
from
your
travel
plans.
