At PIGNETO 2024, we will focus on the small towns and unexplored places that Italians drive around on vacation, and introduce the local cuisine that remains strongly associated with those places.
Dividing Italy into 12 regions, from large cities to small rural towns, you can enjoy cuisine from over 40 different regions throughout the year.
Comment from PIGNETO head chef Yoshihiro Kigawa
Villages surrounded by deep nature that cannot be accessed by train or plane, and small port towns, have a strong food culture unique to the past, and are very interesting. Since the range of travel you can take when sightseeing is limited, I will introduce you to every corner of the authentic Italian local cuisine that I have actually seen and eaten, so please look forward to it.
Introduction of dishes
