Opening a bakery in his native Dzūkija – this is the dream that has followed Chef Valius Čepanonis throughout his culinary career. Valius lived with this dream for ten years, while he was the head of one of the capital’s best restaurant kitchens and the president of the Lithuanian Chefs and Pastry Chefs Association (LVVKA).
“When I went to Vilnius to study, from my native Dzūkija village of Laibagaliai, a beautiful, peaceful corner of nature near Galstas Lake, I was already looking forward to returning, gaining life experience, knowledge and establishing a business. The greatest joy and the best reward is knowing that I can fulfil people’s wishes and needs through my work, and that I can communicate warmly and sincerely with them.
