The Taste of Books, May 10th in Borgonovo Davide Rampello
The catering sector constitutes a fundamental component of the agri-food chain and of the Italian tourism system, with a role that is not limited to the economic dimension, but involves a broader cultural, material and social sphere.
The intent is therefore to start again from a great value: culture. “The word culture has a root linked to cultivating, not only the land, not only the products, but also knowledge and know-how, life, others. It is not an exercise in the arts, it is much more. Culture, cultivate, live, are all etymologically linked words: we are cultivators of life”, writes Davide Rampello, who will dialogue with Giorgio Lambri, journalist and editor of the “Pansa e Tasca” column in the newspaper La Libertà. He will introduce the evening Elisabetta Virtuani, president of the Wine and Flavor Route of the Piacentini Hills. The conclusions will be edited by Andrea Sinigagliageneral director of ALMA the International School of Italian Cuisine.
