VADO A CENA AT SPECIALITY AND FINE FOOD FAIR, Kensington Olympia, Sept. 2010

Hello Foodies and Vado A Cena followers!
Here are some pictures of the stand n. 172! Thank you so much for all the visitors and friends who came to visit us and enjoyed the tastings! When we arrived for the setting up I was personally desperate.

The room available was tiny as we knew, but the foods, banners, wood boxes and decoration stuff we brought with us looked much much voluminous... I thought - We'll never make it!

Only with the work of our great staff (Kathi and Chiara... women really know how to set up and solve space's issues) we could make it... and it was beautiful that some visitors passed by and said - Look how stylish can be Italians...
The stand was very cute indeed, presenting exactly our business concept: mamma's dinner, simple table, like in a Tuscan trattoria, a picture of Italian countryside.
We let visitors taste out best produces: the dry cured ham from Garfagnana, aged for 24 months after being salted and massaged for 45 days (great success!). The two salami from Ghivizzano: delicate Salame prosciuttato (exclusive ham mixture salame) and delicious Mondiola (snail shaped salami with bay leaves).

Two Pecorino Cheeses (sheep milk cheese) matured in cave for 60 days and wrapped in hay and straw or in aromatic herbs. Our monocultivar extra virgin olive oil from Sicily and famous balsamic vinegar from Modena, tasted with strawberries.
The hand made fine chocolate from Maestro Roberto Catinari from Tuscany and our wines.
Visitors were very interested in the history behind our products and the lifestyle we try to share.


A wonderful experience meeting foodies, as always.
