That\u2019s the town\u2019s symbolic dessert, and one of Slovenia\u2019s most popular cakes. Here\u2019s a twist: The cream cake that Restaurant 1906 served as a welcome bite was surprisingly savoury instead of sweet. An interesting version comprising a rosemary-infused polenta and \u2018skuta\u2019 (Slovenia\u2019s cottage cheese) filling sandwiched between two puff pastry layers. We enjoyed this with a refreshing cocktail of gin mixed with a sparkling wine by KLEN\u2019ART (85% Chardonnay, 15% Pinot Noir).<\/p><p>Now it\u2019s time for me to reveal the delicious food and gin matches made in heaven that we enjoyed at the table.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6 Unforgettable Food and Gin Pairings<\/h2><p>I\u2019m in love with Restaurant 1906\u2019s dishes because they\u2019re innovative. They\u2019re created not just for creativity\u2019s sake but to really satisfy their guests. The food is tasty. Flavors and textures combine well, and at just the right moments contrast to delight the foodie.\u00a0<br><\/p><p>I could say the same for Pavus Restaurant. So it\u2019s not surprising that the chefs from both restaurants decided to put their minds together to come up with a stupendous menu.<br><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large td-caption-align-https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38829 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-391x260.jpg 391w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the-slovenia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Pavus-Restaurant\u2019s-signature-smoked-trout-in-a-beer-ponzu-sauce-with-trout-caviar_Photo-Matej-Mi\u0161i\u010d-@misicpretnar.jpg 2020w\" data-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px;
