About this event

The Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West is curating a three-part dinner series - "THE GENESIS, THE NOW AND THE FUTURE-FORWARD TRUE ITALIAN TASTE" -  celebrating the evolution of Italian Cuisine through time. A trio of themes tackle Italy’s rich culinary narrative and are presented by esteemed restaurants across Los Angeles—Angelini Osteria, N10 and Rossoblu. Each will serve a custom, one-night-only menu that reflects a distinct time period—from a chapter in Italy’s storied history, contemporary authentic dishes and protected ingredients, and a look into the future landscape of Italian cuisine. 

On Monday, August 23 beloved authentic Italian restaurant Angelini Osteria presents a "True Italian Taste" of Medieval Italy.In a tribute to his home city of Rimini, lauded chef Gino Angelini transports guests back in time to the House of Malatesta--the Italian Family that ruled over the region of Rimini, Emilia-Romagna during the Middle Ages.

This exclusive, one-night only dinner at Angelini Osteria (celebrating 20 years) treats guests to an exclusive menu that explores the genesis of Italian regional specialties, as well as authenticated and protected ingredients. 

Chef Gino Angelini, who continues to lead masterclasses in Italy showcasing Italian gastronomic tradition, explores cuisine from a curious period of Italian culinary history—inspired by the Malatesta family of Rimini dating back to Medieval Times. In a tribute to his home city of Rimini, the culinary maestro transports guests back in time through a menu (complete with wine pairing) that proposes a mix between the cooking of the 15th century in Emilia-Romagna and the contemporary era.

The evening is a unique collaboration presented by the Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West, focused on promoting chefs, restaurants and their narratives that bridge Italian food traditions and culture with modern American culinary life.
