Parking
by painterdave
Parking did not seem to be much of a problem in Maribor. There is parking provided on both sides of the center. The signs are well marked and we never seemed to have trouble finding a place.
I have written this tip because where I live in Italy, parking is a major problem. It seems like we are always scheming to find a small place for a small car. Featured here below is a metal statue made from old Yugos that were once double parked.

Multi-national cuisine
by Willettsworld about Restavracija Toti rotovž
This restaurant is housed in part of the Town Hall and also there are tables in the courtyard. The reason I came here was that I saw a sign in the Town Hall passageway for a Thai restaurant. But this restaurant not only serves Thai food but they also serve an international cuisine from a whole host of countries that include Slovenia, Ex Yugoslavia, Italy, Greece, Japan, Austria, Thailand and Mexico. I ordered the spicy Thai prawn soup but when it came it didn’t have any prawns in it! So back it went and of course I had to wait a bit longer. The bread that came with the soup was large and round and hot like it had just come out of the oven. Very nice indeed. The main course was a Thai green chicken curry which was very tasty. All-in-all not a bad meal despite having to send the soup back!
Open: 9am-midnight Mon-Sat Closed Sunday.
