Images, music, flavours, colours were all there at Avenue de Frieland, Paris, just off the Champs Elysée.

Countless people mingled throughout the day in this clever mix, created skilfully by the expertise of the Veneta Cucine storeowners. It’s not often that an event combines the spotlight of the jet set with the warmth of a spontaneous welcome, surrounded by affection and charm.

Visitors were able to wander around the many lovely kitchens, carefully selected by Alain Benzanzon, a keen specialist who manages the Paris store, and by Gianni Busetto, Veneta Cucine’s dynamic and equally specialist export manager. Around them a world of food prepared with panache by Yoaké, a young chef and TV star.

Joining the many distinguished guests was Fino’s sales manager Dino Fino who commented, “The experience was unique. The setting was perfect: Great food, great atmosphere and the most beautiful kitchens just off one of the most beautiful streets in the world – The Champs Elysée.”
