                   INTERNATIONAL WEEK OF ITALIAN CUISINE
                        The extraordinary Italian Taste
                                19-25 November 2018
 The third edition of the International Week of Italian Cuisine will celebrate, once again,
 the excellence of Italian culinary and wine traditions with many events and promotions
 all over Singapore.
 Institutions, restaurants, sponsors and Italian organisations will showcase the Italian
 food and wine biodiversity, sustainability, culture and territories as well as the traditions
 and history they represent. Italian cuisine is generally characterized by its simplicity,
 with many dishes having only two to four main ingredients as it relies mainly on the
 quality of the ingredients rather than on elaborate preparation. Ingredients and dishes
 vary from one region to another as Italy did not unite as a Country until the 19th century.
 This is one of the reasons why Italy is the European country with the highest number of
 geographically protected traditional products.
 The Week is coordinated by the Working Group established under the Memorandum of
 Understanding for the Promotion of High-Quality Italian Cuisine Abroad, chaired by the
 Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies (MIPAAF). The points of reference for
 the over 1000 activities scheduled is the network of 296 Italian Embassies, Consulates
 and Italian Cultural Institutes in cooperation with Italian Trade Promotion Agencies,
 Italian Chambers of Commerce and local Chapters of the Accademia della Cucina
 Italiana (Academy of Italian Cuisine).

    WELCOME ADDRESS OF THE AMBASSADOR OF ITALY IN SINGAPORE

 It is my pleasure to welcome you to this new edition of the International Week of Italian
 Cuisine featuring special menus from various Italian restaurants, “Borsa Vini Italiani” a
 trade exhibition presenting different wine companies organised by the Italian Trade
 Agency, a dinner organised by the Academy of Italian Cuisine, the traditional Gala
 Dinner by the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Singapore as well as other initiatives like
 seminars on Mediterranean diet and Sardinian extraordinary longevity.
 I hope these events create the opportunity for Italian food and wine to delight the
 senses, discover new tastes, connect people, and capture the mind and hearts of the
 Italian food lovers in Singapore.
 I take this opportunity to warmly thanks all the Institutions, restaurant, sponsors, Italian
 organizations and participants for their precious contribution to the organization of all
 the events.

                                                                                                 3

   In 1997, the Akea project started to study longevity in Sardinia and in the
   early 2000s, physician Giovanni Pes and demographer Michael Poulain found
   remarkably low mortality rates and high life expectancies among several villages
   in central Sardinia. They marked each settlement onto a map, eventually creating
   a cluster of blue marks.

   They labeled the region a blue zone, a term now used to refer to any area with
   centenarians (100 years or older). Five have been identified, including Nicoya,
   Costa Rica, and Ikaria, Greece.

   The lessons and the secrets from the Sardinians centenaries, together with their
   most common recipes and products, are of great value added to the Italian
   tradition and diet, and very useful for the well-being-Italian-style, which is
   recognised in the world.

   A delegation of around 30 guests will be coming from Sardinia, Italy, to support the
   Conference. Besides the Eat Wise, Live Well conference, there will be a Mamoiada
   Folk Group presentation, which is a remote and ancestral Italian Village, a wellness
   gourmet lunch, masterclasses for industry chefs and a Sardinian gala dinner.

   Typical Sardinian Menu will be offered.
