Saturday 16th July saw us exhibiting at the National Geographic Traveller Food Festival in the Business Design Centre in London. We were part of the Italian National Tourist Board stand for the event and talked to visitors from far and wide about our hiking holidays in Italy and, of course, about the fabulous food and wine which is included in all our itineraries. We met celebrity Italian chef Gennaro Contaldo who was cooking up a storm on a nearby stand promoting Parmigiano Reggiano – one of our favourite cheeses which we learn all about on our Parma, Tuscany and Ligurian Sea tour. Jackie does not often find herself in London, so it was great fun to spend the day in Islington and meet so many different people.
