We can ​ ​ provide your business with a wide range of specialities from the whole country. Are you ​ ​ a restaurant, hotel, shop or a chain of food stores? Then, we are the ideal partner for all what concerns italian delicacies. ​ ​ The company Since 2004 GO-MM Sprl is specialised in the import of high-quality products from Italy ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ to Belgium. We want to spread an image of Italy that steps away from the classic italian ​ clichés by supporting small manufacturers. This passion for Italy, then, pushes us to go ​ ​ further and think about exporting our products out of Europe. ​ ​ ​ Our experience in Belgium lead us to open a shop Belli e Buoni, which has also become a ​ ​ well-known restaurant in the centre of Brussels. This activity gave us the opportunity to explore the customers attitude and trends towards the different products offered. We ​ invite you to visit its website www.belliebuoni.be and get an idea of what we mean. ​ ​ ​ ​ Three key words can summarize our activity: ​ ​ ● High-quality ● Accurate selection ● Small manufacturers This catalogue will show a selection of products we believe are interesting to be exported. It is structured in four main categories: grocery, oil and vinegar, drinks and ​ ​ social engagement products. Each of them is subsequently divided in a more specific way, which also includes the origin of the products. ​ ​ Have a look at our offer, and do not hesitate to take advantage of our network and ​ ​ experience, if you are interested in any other italian product! ​ GO-MM Sprl Tel. +32-2-5340396 [email protected] [email protected] ​ ​ ​ 4 2. Grocery This category includes pastas, biscuits, salty biscuits, cakes, BIO products, tomato sauces and appetizers. 2.1.

  • Italy's Most Popular Aperitivi
    Italy’s Most Popular Aperitivi | Epicurean Traveler https://epicurean-traveler.com/?p=96178&preview=true U a Italy’s Most Popular Aperitivi by Lucy Gordan | Wine & Spirits Italy is world famous for its varied regional landscapes, history, food and accompanying wines. However, if you go straight out to dinner, you’ll be missing out on a quintessential tradition of la bella vita, because, when they have time, self-respecting Italians, especially in the north and in big cities, start their evening with an aperitivo or pre-diner drink. An aperitivo is not “Happy Hour” or an excuse to drink to oblivion. Italians blame many ailments on their livers so the aperitivo has digestive purposes. It allows Italians to relax, unwind and socialize after work. It also starts their digestive metabolism and gets the juices flowing with a light, dry or bitter tonic with a “bite” to work up their appetite before dinner. This so-called “bitter bite” is beloved to Italians who prefer it and the overly sweet to sour. It took me several years to get used to bitter, much less like it. The oldest aperitivo is vermouth, an aromatic fortified wine created in Turin, where the aperitivo tradition is still strongest today. As www.selectitaly.com tells us: “ One of the oldest vermouths dates back to 1757 when two herbalist brothers, Giovanni Giacomo and Carlo Stefano Cinzano created vermouth rosso, initially marketed as a medicinal tonic.” This explains the bitter quality of many Italian drinks even non-alcoholic ones like chinotto or crodino. The Cinzano brothers flavored their vermouth, (its name derived from the German wormwood), with Wermut, its main ingredient, and with over 30 aromatic plants from the nearby Alps: herbs, barks, and roots such as juniper, gentian and coriander.

  • The Use of Food to Signify Class in the Comedies of Carlo Goldoni 1737-1762
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: “THE SAUCE IS BETTER THAN THE FISH”: THE USE OF FOOD TO SIGNIFY CLASS IN THE COMEDIES OF CARLO GOLDONI 1737-1762. Margaret Anne Coyle, Ph.D, 2006 Directed By: Dr. Heather Nathans, Department of Theatre This dissertation explores the plays of Venetian Commedia del’Arte reformer- cum-playwright Carlo Goldoni, and documents how he manipulates consumption and material culture using fashionable food and dining styles to satirize class structures in eighteenth century Italy. Goldoni’s works exist in what I call the “consuming public” of eighteenth century Venice, documenting the theatrical, literary, and artistic production of the city as well as the trend towards Frenchified social production and foods in the stylish eating of the period. The construction of Venetian society in the middle of the eighteenth century was a specific and legally ordered cultural body, expressed through various extra-theatrical activities available during the period, such as gambling, carnival, and public entertainments. The theatrical conventions of the Venetian eighteenth century also explored nuances of class decorum, especially as they related to audience behavior and performance reception. This decorum extended to the eating styles for the wealthy developed in France during the late seventeenth century and spread to the remainder of Europe in the eighteenth century. Goldoni ‘s early plays from 1737 through 1752 are riffs on the traditional Commedia dell’Arte performances prevalent in the period. He used food in these early pieces to illustrate the traditional class and regional affiliations of the Commedia characters. Plays such as The Artful Widow, The Coffee House, and The Gentleman of Good Taste experimented with the use of historical foods styles that illustrate social placement and hint at further character development.

  • Cruise Planners
    Claire Maguire [email protected] www.islandgirltravelandvacations.com 570-209-7191 VENICE, ITALY OVERVIEW Introduction Venice, Italy, is romance: a bridge arching over a canal, a gondola gliding by, the moon reflecting off water. Venice is history: the Palazzo Ducale (Doge's Palace), Piazza San Marco, the Grand Canal, great art and great museums. Venice is modern: the headline names and paparazzi of the Venice Film Festival, the buzzing excitement of Carnival in the 10 days before Lent begins. Venice has a plethora of world-famous museums and artistic treasures. The Basilica di San Marco, with its spectacular Golden Altar; the Bridge of Sighs, where prisoners could enjoy one last glimpse of the beautiful city before entering the dark jail; the Gallerie dell'Accademia, with its collection of art of the 14th-18th centuries; the Peggy Guggenheim Collection of 20th-century art—the list is long. Pick and choose which places you'll visit in-depth, or just skim the surface and soak up the atmosphere. Venice is set on islands connected by bridges, with the Grand Canal as its main thoroughfare, and traffic moves by boats that range from the traditional gondolas to refuse barges. The absence of automobile noise means you can hear the laughter of children from your window, as well as footsteps seemingly just around the corner. But what makes Venice so unique also challenges its existence. The rising sea levels of global climate change threaten the city, and now, more often than in the past, high tides from the Adriatic Sea can flood whole sections of the city.

  • Andrea Peressini for the History of Prosecco: the Wines
    Andrea Peressini For the History of Prosecco: the wines’inventary (1712) «magazzino da malvasia» in Calle del Remedio in Venice The trade and consumption of wine has always represented an important social aspect of the history of Venice. It was in fact the lagoon city, indicated by the chronicles as "the largest market in the world", that all the novelties, including wine, arrived. The massive quantity of wine imported and exported from Venice, one of the most populous Italian cities, gave rise to an important turnover involving various professional figures, including wine-growers, farm-agronomists, vat (brente) and various barrels producers, transporters and transferors (travasadori), merchants and innkeepers engaged in meeting the demands of a diversified clientele. A measure of the monetary value produced by the wine ( which was an economic good) can be obtained from the analysis of the tax revenue. The duty on wine, in fact, was an important revenue of the national income, and for this reason the Senate paid particular attention to it by establishing laws to regulate the supply of wine and, above all, to combat fraud. The wine market was destined to be further expanded if we also consider the submerged and surplus resulting from the trade in table grapes, passe grapes and other products such as agresta (unripe grapes to replace the lemon which is more expensive), vinegar and, last but not least, the much appreciated grappa (1). (1) A classic is the book by Antonio Stella ‘ Il dazio sul vino e sull'uva nella Dominante’, Turin 1891; and by Ugo Tucci, ‘Commercio e consumo del vino a Venezia in età moderna, in Il vino nell'economia e nella società italiana medievale e moderna,’ Florence 1988 (Notebooks of magazines of the history of society and agriculture) , I), pp.
