Gault&Millau Knowledge Under the Hood training courses launch

Gault&Millau Knowledge Under the Hood training courses launch

On Monday, 20 May 2019, Hotel Slon in Ljubljana will host the first in a series of educational events to guide young people just entering the hospitality industry through the wonderful complexity of gastronomic experiences. Hospitality students and young chefs are invited to attend!

Since its inception, Gault&Millau has promoted a holistic understanding of the hospitality industry and has built its standards of evaluation accordingly, as well as its commitment to respecting every element of the holistic experience. At Gault&Millau Slovenia, we are taking this ambition even further with the launch of our Knowledge Under the Hat educational events. We want to shine a light on every part of the hospitality industry and give recognition to its importance and co-creation of a wonderful gastronomic experience.

Chef Ana Roš, wine academic Mira Šemić, Chef Tomaž Bevčič, Chef Jure Tomič and the 2019 Gault&Millau Waiter of the Year Matic Šubic will be with us at the first Gault&Millau Knowledge Under the Hood. On Monday, 20 May 2019, from 10.00 to 15.00 , at the Slon Hotel in Ljubljana, we will learn about the wonderful techniques of cooking through theory and practice, get to know the basics of sensory analysis and wine and food pairing, and take a look into the meaning and breadth of the profession of waiter. The wine accompaniment to the superb cuisine will be provided by excellent Slovenian winemakers; we will serve Vini Belica and Vini Kupljen.

Participation in the event is free of charge, but only with compulsory pre-registration. Students can register as a group through their mentors, while restaurants can register their young chefs individually. Registration is open until 15 May 2019, by email to meta.pavlin@prviprvi.si


Many thanks to all the supporters and sponsors who have shown great understanding and support for the launch of Knowledge under the Hood: the main partner, the Slovenian Tourist Board, and the other supporters - the Slovenian Chamber of Tourism and Catering, the Slovenian Chamber of Crafts and Business and Lidl Slovenia.
