On Thursday, June 28, 2018, the bbuono team traveled to Mo.Ca in Brescia at 87 Moretto Street where the fifth edition of the BRESCIAconDITA event was held, a traveling culinary festival in which restaurateurs, pastry chefs, bartenders, winemakers, chefs, and master brewers gather in a prestigious historical/artistic venue for a dinner where the enhancement of the Brescia area, art, and music come together with good territorial food for charity.
Proceeds were donated to the Ronald McDonald Children’s Foundation, which operates CasaRonaldBrescia.The mission is: “To create, find and support programs that improve the health and well-being of children and their families. We aim to build, purchase or operate Ronald Homes located adjacent to hospital facilities and Family Rooms located directly within pediatric wards to provide hospitality and care for sick children and their families during the period of hospital treatment or therapy.”
Amidst the magical ceramics of sculptor artist Ugo Romano and to the background music of acoustic duo Anima Nera, the gluttonous food lovers and the bbuono team were able to appreciate the various food and wine offerings in a traveling tour of high quality local products, included in special menus of savory and sweet dishes, from welcome cocktail to dessert passing from first courses to second courses washed down with excellent wine.
In attendance were our friends/suppliers from Qbio, whose flatbreads (we accompanied them with a great KMzero beer from Curtense craft brewery) thrilled us.
Let’s open a small parenthesis about this craft brewery in Franciacorta. Intrigued by the high quality of the beer we were able to appreciate at this event, the next day we went to visit Matteo, one of the three owners of this company to understand their modus operandi. We were impressed by their beers, high quality, passion in their work, all-natural products … thus anticipating that there will be news on our e-commerce ☺
For the bbuono team it was a wonderful evening, the companies present churned out exceptional quality, but above all they wanted to create something genuine, not only from the point of view of food and wine but of solidarity. We want to mention these companies that worked in favor of Casa Ronald Brescia managing to set up a successful evening in which a dinner among friends is transformed into a charitable occasion; Finil del Pret, Qbio, Floriam, Restaurantcaffè, Riserva del Grande, Pasticceria Bosco Corsica, Pasticceria Bossoni Francesco, Tenuta la Vigna, Castello Bonomi Tenute in Franciacorta.
We leave Mo.Ca thanking the organizers, the local companies present and the staff of BRESCIAconDITA and say goodbye to the sixth edition in 2019.
