The Grana Padano plaque at Eataly New York, during the 2012 edition. The different maturations of the Consorzio’s cheese will once again be among the protagonists in the Big Apple, from October 4th till the 6th, during the fourth edition of Identità New York
The fourth edition of Identità New York, 4-6th October 2013, confirms the synergy with Eataly and the strengthening of the collaboration with the Expo – an important event that awaits the city of Milan in 2015. The capital of Lombardy, this year too has given its patronage to the event, while Fipe – the Bilateral institution for national tourism – once again shows its attention to the international promotion of the Italian restaurant sector.
The focus of the lessons held by 12 great chefs will be on those raw materials that make Italian cuisine and not only that great – egg, pasta, salted codfish, tomato, cheese and rice. Not only that but the support of the leading food companies in Italy becomes more and more significant. In particular, Consorzio del Grana Padano will see its differently matured cheeses interpreted during some of the cooking classes by chefs of the calibre of Sara Jenkins and Viviana Varese and they will be also offered as an aperitif during the two gala dinners scheduled on the 4th and 5th of October inside Eataly’s Birreria.

Lavazza will have the task of closing the dinners according to Italian tradition with their precious blends and it will also award a famous family for their contribution in spreading Italian culture and “Made in Italy” cuisine in the United States. There will also be some important toasts with the special edition – a world preview – of Mionetto’s Luxury, Identità NY’s official Prosecco. There will be some more Italian bubbles in the glasses at the beginning of the cooking classes thanks to Berlucchi’s Franciacorta. Birra Moretti will have the task of illustrating the beer-world, with its Birra Moretti classica and Birra Moretti La Rossa, and of giving an Italian touch to a world that is usually a prerogative of Northern Europe.

These are all the treasures of Italy that the American public has had the chance to taste and buy during the promotional month of September, in the food store on 5th Avenue. Last but not least, the speaker-chefs will wear the uniforms designed by Bragard, the sponsor who signs the events of Identità Golose both in Milan and abroad.
