The gastronomic offer at Gostilna pri Lojzetu is now being designed by the fourth generation. Chef Tomaž Kavčič is Chaîne des Rôtisseurs and Le Soste, in addition to being a member of the international gastronomic association. He is also the first and long-time president of the Slovenian section of the Jeunes Restaurateurs d'Europe and the winner of the European JRE Award for Innovation 2017/2018. Even though he never studied abroad, he acquired a great deal of knowledge in cooperation with the famous masters of his profession.
For a short amount of time he was seduced by the trendy molecular cuisine, but he quickly returned to author's cuisine, innovations, and – tradition.
He loves his Vipava Valley, so he proudly shows it off - on a plate. Every single dish in the restaurant is enveloped with the rich local tradition. Each dish is first envisioned in his head, then it is boldly tested on the kitchen floor, but the final verdict always belongs to the guests.
