There is a heat wave here in Verona at 30C and sunny weather! It is hot like Singapore.
Last night I had a lovely dinner organised by Grand Cru Vini in the Palazzo Regione and met my friends, Chef Vinod and his lovely wife, 1 Michelin Star Chef Antonella Ricci. The superbo Italian wines went well with the Chinese, Indian and Japanese food. The Indian food was cooked by Vinod and Antonella. I also met my good friend, Chiara Lungarotti of the famous Lungarotti wines. Today I shall do more wine and olive oil tasting The event has been well organised by Veronafiere of Verona and Felicitas Global has brought a special delegation of wine importers and food importers to attend Vinitaly and also Agrifood and SOL (olive oil) which run concurrently with Vinitaly.
In the world of food and wine, there is always something new to discover…
