New York – In just five days, the Sant’Oronzo square of Lecce will host the “Cultural Capital of Good Food: the Med-Italian Diet Festival.” And on Easter Sunday, the NY Times published an article by Seth Sherwood, “In Lecce, Making Magic with Humble ingredients.” The piece was featured on the newspaper’s website three days before being printed on paper, for a total of 850,000 readers for the print edition and 106,000 readers for the web version. Seth Sherwood’s words and images tell of his personal experience at several culinary schools in the Lecce province: “Cook in Puglia” (with Ylenia Sambati and Mamma Giulia), “Cooking Experience” (with Gianna Greco and John Duggan), “Stile Mediterraneo” (with Cinzia and Marika Rascazzo), “The Awaiting Table” (with Silvestro Silvestori), “Il Gusto del Tacco” (with Anna Maria Chirone), and “Alle Due Corti” (with Rosalba De Carlo).
