Salone del Gusto
Turin, a city of taste and host to the Salone del Gusto, or Salon of Taste. The exhibition is held every two years at Lingotto, organised by Slow Food and Piedmont Regional Authority, now one of the fine food and wine sector’s major events at international level. Food, or rather food as an expression of culture and identity: to be respected, defended and valorised. This was the inspiration for themes like biodiversity and healthy eating education.
The fair involves cooks, wine specialists, restaurateurs, journalists and experts, with an increasing number of devoted visitors and fans. It was no surprise when Turin’s Salone del Gusto won the 2003 official international show award.
The next edition of the Salone del Gustowill be held between 23 and 27 October 2008.
