The Citadel of Taste
Associazione Italiana Cuochi has created a national event, which will be repeated every year in all the countries of the world where the World AIC Delegations will be present. The "Citadel of Taste" will host the regions of Italy, with the participation of the AIC regional and provincial delegations. Each region will delight us with the presence of companies and products that belong to the local and regional food and wine sector.
A kermesse that will see the best products of excellence linked to the territory parade. The "Citadel of Taste" will be built in 4 days from Saturday to Tuesday and will be open to all the public. The "Citadel of Taste" will open its doors for 4 days, from 09 in the morning to 18 in the evening, where tourists and residents will be able to visit the stands and learn about Italy's "food and wine treasures".
The project wants to see the realization of other editions, becoming a point of reference for all of Italy and in the world. During the Citadel, the regions will also compete in a "Culinary Contest", competing with dishes from their own region.
This year the first edition will be held in Italy
In Tuscany and the participation of about 200 chefs is expected, and 100 exhibitors from all over Italy with friends, relatives and companions, who will have to find hospitality and refreshment at Tuscan hotels and restaurants.
