This undated photo provided by the Slovenia Tourist Board shows chef Ana Ros of Hisa Franko, in the remote village of Kobarid, in the western part of Slovenia. Ros, who starred last year in an episode of the &quot;Chef's Table&quot; Netflix series, heads the kitchen and her husband Valter Kramar is the resident cheese and wine expert at the inn and restaurant on the small farm he inherited from his father. Ros' cooking skills are largely self-taught, though she was mentored by culinary luminaries to become a master chef of a surprising cuisine. &quot;I found my own way of creating that's in some way freer,&quot; she says, adding that the only thing she'd hate to hear from guests &quot;would be that the dinner was boring.&quot;(Slovenia Tourist Board via AP)
