Last week, Il Botolo took part in the first event of the “Stories of Good Cuisine”, a project organized by Alice for Children. It was a special fundraising evening to support the Alice Italian Food Academy. The initiative supports the Italian cooking school in Nairobi by improving on-site facilities and trying to accommodate more and more students eager to learn and train in the field of Italian cuisine.
The event was hosted for the first time by the famous foodblogger and founder of the kitchen website Giallo Zafferano, Sonia Peronaci, in ‘Sonia Factory’ in Milan, in Via Bramante.
120 guests attended the evening and had the chance to taste our Barbera d’Asti DOCG 2015, which was professionally served by the students of the Food & Beverage school Carlo Porta in Milan and that was served along with the delicious “cream and speck dumplings” that Sonia prepared during a special live cooking show.
Our wine fit in beautifully with the cordial and lively atmosphere amongst Milan’s entrepreneurial community that came together to support this noble cause.
We at Botolo wish to thank Alice for Children and Sonia’s Factory for giving us this opportunity and we look forward to many future events together!
