KinoVino Rome with Eleonora Galasso

Pack your bags, brush up on your Italian, KinoVino is Rome-bound! It is truly wonderful to be able to team up with one of Rome’s most elegant, witty and charming chefs who is currently taking London by storm: Eleonora Galasso. Her debut cookbook ‘As the Romans Do’ was met with huge acclaim in the UK, and rightly so: not only is it full of incredibly delicious and authentic dishes, it is a fascinating account of Rome’s history, culture and eating habits. The charm and grace of the guest chef could only be matched by that of the Hollywood legend, Audrey Hepburn, and her iconic debut feature film - Roman Holiday. A film that is a true classic of Hollywood romance genre, directed by the giant, William Wyler, paints the most enticing, joyful and charming portrait of Rome, a city steeped in (cinematic) history. The portrayals of Rome on film are indeed endless but it the Rome through the eyes of Audrey Hepburn’s character, Princess Ann, that, we felt, is closest to the vision depicted in Eleonora’s book. It is likely that Princess Ann has been to those cafes, squares and streets, that Eleonora recalls so evocatively in her account. Join us for one night only on this gastro-cinematic journey to one of Europe’s oldest and most characterful cities!
