San Lorenzo Presents: the report
In a sunny, warm and almost summer London, Thursday night took place the first San Lorenzo Presents: tasting, followed by a dinner, of San Lorenzo’s products. The night was focused on rice and two of the best Piedmont wines, Barolo and Barbaresco.
The crowd we were able to assemble was quite heterogeneous: from the founder of the Girl Geek Dinners, Sarah Blow, to her Italian counterpart, Amanda Lorenzani; from Steve Lamb to one of the two Trusted Places founders, Walid Al Saqqaf, to restaurant critic Andy Hayler; from 4 of the major Uk food bloggers, The Passionate Cook, Cook Sister, Londonelicious (her report!) and Aidan the Trainee Chef (his report!), to other bloggers, like Bru (who wrote something about it even on Trusped Places Blog); from one of the top Flickr contributors, Mernas, to a chef, Celia Brooks Brown… And some others, like some wonderful Irish people, Aoife and Dermott, like Emma, Trusted Places newsletter editor, like some Italian friends…
The products that most interested everybody was, of course, Venere rice! It’s black, it’s fragrant, it’s different! Check it out!
The wines were, as usually, a huge success! They are so good that you can’t help it: you’re gonna love them!
Thanks to everybody for coming and making the night a success! Here you can check out some pics!
Thank you again for the übertasty dinner!
See you soon in London, or in Milan
