Innovation Meets Tradition: Center Rog’s Culinary Lab Offers a Taste of Slovenian Creativity

At the culinary laboratory of Center Rog, Slovenia’s largest creative hub, visitors can experience the intersection of modern technology and traditional cuisine. From using advanced lyophilizers to preserve fruit to preparing a goulash large enough to feed an entire factory, the workshop introduces participants to inventive cooking methods in a dynamic creative environment.

Set inside a former production hall with a 150-year industrial history, Center Rog has evolved from a machinery workshop and leather goods factory into a vibrant space for innovation and collaboration. Today, its community-based production laboratories welcome the public, allowing participants to explore new skills after completing the required training programs. The culinary lab features a large kitchen island surrounded by prototypes, creative tools, and 3D printers from the nearby FAB lab.

The workshop “Mix & Match Tastes” invites guests to discover Slovenian flavors through hands-on cooking activities. Participants prepare dishes inspired by local ingredients, including a unique filling made from curd and pehtran, a traditional Slovenian dragon herb, which is folded into puff pastry using simple and efficient techniques.

Alongside the pastry creation, participants prepare a seasonal salad combining apples, walnuts, horseradish, and honey while learning fascinating insights into Slovenian culinary traditions. Blending creativity, technology, and cultural heritage, the workshop offers more than a meal—it provides a memorable journey into the flavors and stories behind Slovenia’s gastronomy.
