This first Alaçati Festival was an experimental event that intends to return every year, dedicated both to traditional Turkish cuisine and to great guests representing international cuisine, Mediterranean in particular, like Lorenzo Cogo from Vicenza, chef at El Coq (+39.0445.1886367). All this following the theme of a rediscovery of forgotten flavours
Even Turkey decided to enter the agon of globalised cuisine, in particular from the outpost of Alaçati, a touristic destination located in the Aegean region, near Izmir. And they did so a few days after the opening of Massimo Bottura’s restaurant at Eataly in Istanbul, with the aim of lighting up a new hotbed in the international gastronomic scene. Mediterranean scene, in fact, given the nationalities of the guests: Tunisian Rafik Tlatli, of hotel Les Jasmins di Nabeul, Lebanese Joe Barza, who from Beirut carries on his culinary consultant activity all around the world, and our own Lorenzo Cogo, straight from Marano Vicentino.
