Come to the (Italian) table

The Italian Chamber of Commerce has planned a delicious line-up of events this summer for its Italy 2012: Quality & Lifestyle promotion. A particular highlight for foodies is ‘A Tavola!’ (or, for the non-Italian speakers, ‘come to the table!’), which returns by popular demand as the festival’s primary food promo during June. The theme is simple: top-notch chefs from 16 participating restaurants each craft a special, authentic menu with dishes honouring the local flavours of a specific Italian region. Essentially, you’ll get to taste your way around Italy without leaving Hong Kong. Delizioso.

Participating restaurants include Domani (representing Friuli-Venezia Giulia), Gaia (Lazio), Osteria (Sicily), Joia (Emilia-Romagna) and The Mistral (Umbria), among 11 other outlets. To further entice diners, a chance to win an Italian getaway to Verona is also up for grabs. Just spend a minimum of $250 at any participating restaurant and you’ll receive a stamp on one of A Tavola’s promotional postcards (available at the Italian Chamber of Commerce and participating restaurants). Fill in the rest of the postcards and you’ll be eligible to win. Eat to your heart’s content as the more places you try, the more opportunities you’ll have to be Italy-bound.

Promotional materials can be found at select venues throughout Hong Kong. You can also check out the Italian Chamber of Commerce website at www.icc.org.hk for more details. Chow! Um, we mean ciao!
