There is an old Chinese saying which goes like this: From everything in the world, food comes first. Being a cultural representative of Italian Culture in China, it never bores me to attend an Italian Food Festival because Italian cuisine just keeps surprising us.
On 22nd Sep, last Monday, I was invited to attend the opening ceremony of the Italian Food Festival in Nanyuan Hotel in the occasion of NingBo International Festival of Tourism, organized by Ningbo Foreign Affairs’ Office and Ningbo Tourism Office. It was indeed a very pleasant night, I had the pleasure to know Mr.KongWeiWei and found out that he is actually a descendent of Confucius, what a big surprise; I was delighted to learn that Mr. Kong is also a fan of Italian opera and an excellent Peking Opera singer, how amusing it is!
In order to present the most authentic Italian cuisine, the organizer of the festival has specially invited a famous Italian chef for this occasion, Giovanni Ruotolo, who has started practicing the culinary art since the age of 17.
Ningbo is the sister city of two famous Italian cities, Florence and Verona, I therefore sincerely wish more and more citizens of Ningbo will come to enjoy the delicious Italian food.
