Restaurants on the Edge: Slovenia’s Zmauc Bar gets transformed in season 2 Sat 9 May 2020 20:28 Eve Edwards
Mia Horton Restaurants on the Edge is back on Netflix for its sophomore season, just three months after the successful first series aired.
The cooking-cum-travel series – largely inspired by Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares but without the profanities – follows as a trio of experts travel to eateries around the world which are struggling despite their stunning locations.
Season 1 took viewers from Malta to Hong Kong, and season 2 will see the hosts go even further afield. Some of the seven locations featured in season 2 include Canada, Hawaii and Finland.
The first episode sees Karin Bohn, Dennis Prescott and Nick Liberato head to the capital of Slovenia to help a historic bar find its feet in the twenty-first century. Check out the transformation of Zmauc here!

Zmauc has been a family-run business since Ljubljana gained its independence in the 1990s.

Zmauc, Slovenia – transformation
As has been the way with past Restaurants on the Edge episodes, the transformations largely lie with Karin’s updates to the interiors.
Karin updated the bar with a slick of black paint giving it a modern feel. Her interior design choices helped to make the bar feel like more like a restaurant, as Matthias and Dina embark on their creation of a supper club.
Chef Dennis Prescott helped to shape the menu, drawing on the abundance of delicious produce Slovenia has to offer as inspiration.
