Identità Golose – http://www.identitagolose.it  –
is a series that originated in Italy in 2005.
It invites chefs to gather in one arena to underscore the culinary excellence of each Italian region and to honor the chefs who proudly blend tradinational techniques with modern methods.
It is the first International Cooking Conference, including pastry and gelato, that has been achieved in Italy.
An idea curated by journalist Paolo Marchi, the event is organized by MAGENTAbureau, chaired by Claudio Ceroni.
Six editions have been held in Milan and have highlighted the greatest Italian and international chefs and the best pastry chefs and artisanal producers. The second edition of Identità
London will be held on the 7th and 8th of June, 2010, the perfect stage for showcasing the excellence of “tricolor” products to an international audience.
