Carbonara VS Cacio e Pepe — Roman Cuisine Festival
Roman cuisine lands in Piazza Risorgimento in Seregno
About Carbonara VS Cacio e Pepe
Rome in the square in Seregno
The Carbonara VS Cacio e Pepe — Roman Cuisine Festival brings the flavors of the Capital to the heart of Seregno, in the Province of Monza and Brianza. For an entire weekend, Piazza Risorgimento transforms into a traveling gastronomic village dedicated to Roman cuisine, one of the most beloved and recognizable in Italian tradition.
The challenge between the two symbolic dishes
The festival's title itself stages the most delicious duel of the Roman table: on one side, carbonara; on the other, cacio e pepe. Around these two great classics, the stands offer the repertoire of Lazio cuisine, from fresh pasta to traditional second courses, in a street food format that invites tasting and comparison. It's a format that has enlivened numerous squares in Northern Italy in recent years and finds an ideal urban setting in Seregno.
Part of the city's Sport Week
The event is part of the broader program of Seregno's Sport Week, the festival that animates the city with sports, recreational, and entertainment initiatives between May and June. The Roman cuisine festival represents its food and wine aspect, with free admission and kitchens open until the evening.
