The Lives of Tomaž Kajzer

Chef with a Star

"I am Tomaž Kajzer. I have been cooking for as long as I can remember." So begins the episode Chef with a Star, where Kajzer’s world is a universe of spices, masterful food preparation, original combinations, running a top‑class restaurant, ambition, intimacy, closeness between two people, the desire for success, and the presence of true and false friends. Who really is Kajzer, and how does he navigate this world? What do Michelin stars mean in the world of haute cuisine — and in life? Exceptional recipes, superb preparation, balance between spices and flavors. If there is too much or too little of something, problems arise. Just like in life.
