“The economic sectors are reopening in Malaysia, and as an organisation that supports business and trade, we are confident that Italian Cuisine Experience 2021 will be able to uplift the spirit of the nation and travel through taste with eight different restaurants participating with individually customised menus," said Trade Commissioner of the Italian Trade Agency in Kuala Lumpur, Dr Filippo Fusaro.

"Looking for a hearty meal to celebrate with your loved ones? Whether in the form of various kinds of pasta, pizzas, risottos and even desserts, these restaurants will provide you with the origins of tasteful Italian meals. We continuously aspire to make it a journey for people to enjoy what our cuisine has to offer," Dr Fusaro added.

‘I would like to thank the Italian chefs for their support and for promoting the Italian cuisine in Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia," said Ambassador of Italy to Malaysia, H.E Cristiano Maggipinto. "We want consumers to enjoy the special menus prepared by the chefs for this occasion. Eat Healthy, Taste Italy with us."
