The third Italian Cuisine Week
in the World will focus on the Mediterranean Diet and will be
held November 19-25.
There will be over 1,000 events in 120 countries with
thousands of chefs leaving for different continents: Carlo
Cracco will be in India while the Italian Federation of Cooks
and Ambassadors of Taste will be in Miami with president
Cristina Bowerman.
The initiative began immediately after the Milan Expo 2015 as
a way to focus on the value of Italian gastronomical culture.
Minister for Agriculture, Food, Forestry and Tourism Policies
Gian Marco Centinaio said that "over the past ten years the
value of food and wine exported has risen by 80%. But the
political world understood too late the value of integrated
promotion. However, we are working on that now" through bringing
together the agriculture and tourism ministries.
