Event overview
Cacio & Pepe Day is an experience conceived by Antonella Bondi and belongs to the Fine Food Society project:
– offering concrete support for the tourism, food, wine and hospitality industries of the “Bel Paese”, the producers, the restaurants , the chefs
– promoting Italian cuisine abroad.
Cacio & Pepe is a historical pasta dish that perfectly represents the very idea of Italianità, especially outside Italy. It is therefore an ideal medium for the promotion of Italian cuisine and culture around the world
It is an instrument that enables ideas and values to be shared with other countries, a wide ranging project that spans different cultural fields: Italian tradition, culture and lifestyle are revealed through one of the most powerful means of bringing people together, food.
The first Cacio & Pepe Day took place successfully 20 & 21 November 2021 in Milan, Rome and Tokyo
The event was not only a celebration of this most iconic dish of Italian cuisine and living well.
It represented the launch of a wider cultural and gastronomic initiative, through which Italy shows itself to the world, its style and identity, all with the theme of sustainability.
Cacio & Pepe Day reaffirms Italy’s vocation for sharing and conviviality, driven by the spirit that deeply unites the Italian people and highlights their innovations through history, tradition and creativity.

Cacio & Pepe Food Sounds Ritual
Tastings for the 5 sensesImmersive experiences that activate the five senses to fully experience a tasting.
Those who try a Cacio & Pepe Sounds Ritual smell, eat, drink and dream, with eyes open certainly, but in such a vibrant way that it is as if they penetrate and feel every little vibration of the world.
The Sounds Rituals revolve around a dish, a drink, a pastry, a place on Earth and through the stimulation of the senses, they excite the thoughts, memories and breath that mark our existence.
