July 21 – The poet Giosue’ Carducci called Brescia the “Lioness of Italy” for its heroic resistance of the Austrians during the wars of independence in the 19th century. Now, Brescia resumes its role to conquer Switzerland. Thanks to the partnership between the Italian Chamber of Commerce for Switzerland and Pro-Brixia, the Special Agency of Commerce in Brescia, the territory’s culinary excellences will take the stage for an entire day in Zurich. The event will take place on 27 October in Zunfthaus zur Saffran; it will feature a series of tastings and meetings between importers, restaurant owners and operators within the Swiss food industry and Brescia producers.
