SUMMARY:Pirata Group x SFHK: Private Soiree at La Favorita with Chef Emanuele Canuto
DESCRIPTION:For our next event\, Slow Food Hong Kong has teamed up with the one-and-only Pirata Group to host an exclusive Good/Clean/Fair dinner for our members. The setting this time ’round is La Favorita\, a classic Italian establishment styled in the grand and eclectic manner of a 1960s Italian opera house\, complete with hand-painted artisan vases and dramatic drapes. The restaurant\, housed within multi-restaurant complex The Sixteenth at Taikoo Place\, is famed for its theatrical\, oversized sharing dishes and handmade pastas. \n \nAt the helm is chef Emanuele Canuto\, who will be personally making an appearance that evening.

SUMMARY:Hack Your Snacks: Afternoon Tea Talk at Fringe Vault
DESCRIPTION:Hack Your Snacks: Afternoon Tea Talk at Fringe Vault\n \nHow do you balance the goal of a healthier nutritional diet with the cravings for munchies and snacks? Try eating healthier snacks. Slow Food Hong Kong and the Fringe Club is presenting a special Saturday afternoon presentation that not only addresses the issue\, but showcases two innovative Hong Kong-based experts making a difference with healthy\, alternative snacks. \nHeadlining the fun and casual discussion are gourmet seed cracker manufacturer Monica Bharwani of Divine Indulgence by Monica\, and artisan plant-based chef and ‘cheezanista’ Amy Elkhoury of Nuteese. \nBoth women started experimenting in food and cooking\, wanting to make healthier choices for themselves and their families. Gradually\, their efforts became a passion as interest and demand in their homemade alternative treats grew organically to become small businesses. Their stories are fascinating and inspiring\, and their original and inventive products break new ground in Hong Kong\, offering health-conscious consumers a real alternative. \n \nLaunched only two years ago\, Divine Indulgence by Monica started with Monica Bharwani making healthy but tasty gourmet snacks for friends and her children. As interest grew\, she wanted to share her love for baking with a healthy component by focusing on nuts- and seeds-based crackers and snacks. \n \nNuteese founder Amy Elkhoury is a plant-based chef who previously worked in multimedia and design. She started looking for more balance in her life by becoming a yoga teacher almost 20 years ago.
