“Far da mangiare. Festival della cucina 2019“, the event dedicated to the culinary art, now in its sixth edition, is back at the Spazio MIL in Sesto San Giovanni (Milan) on Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th November.
The festival, which takes place in conjunction with the Week of Italian Cuisine in the World, spreads the culture of food in all its aspects, thanks to a rich schedule of completely free activities, which this year focus in particular on the exotic atmospheres and the scents coming from Asia and South America.
It is possible to participate in cooking workshops, tastings, meetings with the producers and cooking shows to browse through the most interesting recipes from East to West, in addition to workshops conceived specifically for children.

For the occasion is on display the interesting exhibition “DODICI STORIE SUL CIBO. Dal Cavallo al Carrello. Carte dalla collezione Rapisarda”, curated by Andrea Tomasetig, which opens Thursday November 21st at 6.30pm.
The exhibition offers a selection of vintage papers and documents from the vast collection of Milanese scholar Michele Rapisarda, which tell twelve curious stories about Italian food from 1865 to the present day.
Of particular interest are the covers of various illustrated magazines, from the historic “Domenica del Corriere” to the contemporary artist magazine “Toiletpaper”, as well as advertising pages with signed graphics, accompanied by postcards, calendars, receipts for meals at the tavern, gadgets and leaflets.
