I was the guy behind eggdrop, paramiko, the sidekick ssh client, kestrel, and many smaller projects. I've been in 3 unsuccessful bands and I'm one of the 23 people who finished reading "Gravity's Rainbow". But I'm primarily known for making a dumb Fibonacci joke online in 2011.

So I'm very sad to report that this 194 years old restaurant, with one half in Slovenia and the other in Croatia, sadly seems to be closed. Even though the pedestrian/bike bridge that was blocked by a border for 30 years is now welcoming and open...
