The great Festival of Italian cuisine - 7th EDITION - Cibo Nostrum

The great
Festival of
Italian cuisine
7th EDITION

The flagship fundraising
event of the Italian
Chef Federation

More than 22,000 visitors last year have crossed the threshold of
Taormina Cooking Fest, giving the possibility to the Italians Chef
Federation's DSE to allocate a substantial donation to the Foundation
LIMPE for research on Parkinson's disease. An act that makes honor to
all, chefs, producers and participants. This year, it is enhanced by a
new solidarity partnership with Moige. Part of the revenues of this
seventh edition, indeed, will be donated to the Italian Parents' Movement
in favor of the awareness campaign against cyberbullying.

United for a good cause!

resources - the land with food, the beautiful scenery with wine, the cuisine and
culinary traditions with culture, history and museums - it can and must be the true
strategy for the promotion of this region and, why not, an economic model to be
exported for different sectors: economy, tourism, agri-food, training, culture and
solidarity.
