Expo of Taste

August, 26th - September, 2st 2012

The Town of Food and Arts & Crafts

The Gustaminori Corporation will enlarge and amplify its horizons this year, by creating two true and proper islands dedicated to food and artisan products within the framework of an already full programme of cultural and artistic events, which transform Minori into an open air theatre.

The success gathered in previous years and the great affluence of visitors, who have, each year filled the streets of this pearl of the Amalfi Coast, has encouraged the organisers to look beyond the boundaries of their own territory. They will also provide space for artisans and farmers from the whole province of Salerno. A true window of rare beauty. Together with the IX edition of the Eno-gastronomic Literary Prize and the XV edition of Gusta Minori, from 29 August to 5 September the first edition of Expo of Food will be held.

The main objective is to promote the eno-gastronomic and artisan products of the area. Skills which developed even in the most remote hillside villages and coastal communities, this is a sign of an heterogeneous culture that has acquired knowledge and techniques from many different peoples, each one of which has left unique and permanent marks in our traditions.

Walking on the sea front in Minori visitors can enjoy a journey infused with art and cuisine, strolling along the streets of the "SALERNO.EAT". In this area, food stands will be set up giving visitors the chance of tasting and buying all kinds of typical traditional products of the territory; from local cheese to fish produce, from local cured meats to traditional cakes, from hand- made pasta to Amalfi Coast fresh citrus fruits, will be offered.

Walking through the main shopping street visitors will enter the "SALERNO.EAT" world, where meetings with experts in woodwork, ironwork, glasswork and textile and of any element that man has been able to transform into useful items for the decorations and for his life improvement, will be held.

Two whole days to increase the value and sell innovative cultural and traditional products connected to the various artisan sectors by virtue of meetings and exchanges of the "Made in Italy" with foreign Countries (with its innate creativity and originality) and its multi-cultural influences...

This and more is the Expo of taste, the first gastronomic and art citadels on the Amalfi Coast, a real tribute to the creativity, skill and inspiration of many craftsmen who generate new emotions and a deep desire for beauty.
