Slovenia
Gala Hala is 10 to 15 minute's walk from the beautiful historic center of Ljubljana - but quite a contrast.
Located in a less touristy area of town among graffiti-covered buildings, the cosy venue is oriented toward punk rock, metal and ska, and also hosts hip-hop and dub nights. Visitors over the years have included The Toasters and Me First and the Gimme Gimmes as well as small European bands.
In the summer you can enjoy the larger outdoor stage (Letni oder Gala Hala) and drink a well-priced lager under the stars while chatting with friendly locals.

The most central Mexican restaurant in Ljubljana, this is a great reasonable restaurant for vegetarians, with massively generous portions of great quality foods. Try the tortilla lasagne for the ultimate in fusion food.
From Preseren Trg, go down Wolfova, the alley besides number 6 Wolfova leads to a run of restaurants including Cantina Mexicana.
