Did you know that this November there is a celebration of the First Week of Italian Cuisine in the World ?

Italian Embassy is preparing some surprises for us!

First Week of Italian Cuisine in the World (21st to 27th November 2016)

A week of fine Italian food and dining in Cyprus (and all over the world)

Cyprus will be among the over 100 countries where, from the 21st to the 27th of November 2016, the 1st Week of Italian Cuisine in the World will be celebrated: an initiative of the Italian Government to promote the excellence of Italian wines and food abroad which will feature 1.300 events in every continent under the title The Extraordinary Italian Taste.

The Italian Embassy in Nicosia has called upon restaurants and organizations who are particularly committed to Italian fine dining – with a high quality standard and a rigorous selection of ingredients – to organize special gastronomic and educational events about the Italian culinary tradition.

A particularly rich program is being organized by Isolani Pizza Bar in Nicosia, which features an evening of Umbrian delicacies entitled “Osteria Italia” (Monday 21st) and a “Sardinian Deluxe Sunday Lunch” (Sunday 27th) with the award-winning Sardinian Chef Franco Podda from the Restaurant “Santa Rughe” in Gavoi (Nuoro), who will bring special ingredients directly from his hometown (Mr Podda will also hold a masterclass for students at the C’ Technical School of Limassol). Tickets to both gastronomic events can be purchased directly at the Italian Embassy.
