Slow Food is a global, grassroots
organization with supporters in 150 countries around the world who are linking
the pleasure of good food with a commitment to their community and the
environment. Slow Food was founded in 1989 to counter the rise of fast food and
fast life, the disappearance of local food traditions and people’s dwindling
interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes and how our
food choices affect the rest of the world.
With a global vision of “envision a world in which all
people can access and enjoy food that is good for them, good for those who grow
it and good for the planet” slow food is a novel concept to us Sri Lankans, and
at MLH, the pioneers of this convivum, is ready to welcome you to this dining
experience. March surfaces the 30th slow food night, with Italy in
focus featuring Chef Riccardo Rizzoli currently
serving as the Executive Chef for Vakarufalhi, the MLHG’s(Mount
