The chefs presented each meal themselves in a short speech so that each visitor had the chance to hear and see who made the magic fusion of tastes that was offered on a plate. The event had a charity note as well. They raised 5,000 euros during the dinner for the Young Chef Foundation to allocate to the most promising and devoted young chef for the training abroad.&nbsp;<br><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large td-caption-align-https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29677 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-scaled-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-391x260.jpg 391w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-630x420.jpg 630w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29677\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-scaled-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-391x260.jpg 391w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2D1A8834-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Choosing the best is not an easy task&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2><p>The Expert Committee of 2020 will consist of prof.

the restaurant had to operate for at least a year. They assessed the food and beverages (the variety, quality of the ingredients, food presentation, harmony of tastes, innovative approach in combining food and drinks) as well as the service quality (greetings, serving, and ways of recommending food and drinks and the knowledge of the waiting staff). Based on all that the joint assessment of \u2018\u2019general satisfaction\u2019\u2019 was made after visiting the restaurant. The second round of evaluation was in the hands of expert public &#8211; that is the Academy of Gastronomy. Their marks added up to 75 % of the total assessment. At the beginning of March, the votes of the general public were distributed to the best and thus provided for the last one-quarter of the votes.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The Deloitte Slovenia Consulting finally reviewed independent evaluations of all the votes in April 2020 and they confirmed the credibility of the results. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/restaurants\/hisa-franko\/\">Hi\u0161a Franko<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/restaurants\/vila-podvin\/\">Vila Podvin<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/restaurants\/gostilna-pri-lojzetu-dvorec-zemono\/\">Gostilna pri Lojzetu &#8211; Dvorec Zemono<\/a><\/strong> were announced as the best three restaurants last year.
