This is the place to find out about specialities such as lardo di Colonnata from Tuscany, the seafood of Venice, or Italian cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano from Parma. It's also where to find out about Slow Food; organic produce; Italian food festivals, liqueurs, the cafes of Turin or the wines of Tuscany - like Vin Santo, Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino or Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.
