Explore Authentic Italian Flavors at ‘Taste of Italy Food Showcase’

For those looking to indulge in authentic Italian culinary delights, the “Taste of Italy Food Showcase 2025” at Gourmet Market across Bangkok presents a rich selection of traditional Italian flavors, available now through Thursday, February 13th.

Hosted in partnership with the Italian Trade Agency and the Embassy of Italy in Thailand, this event is taking place at Gourmet Market venues within several major shopping malls across Bangkok, including EmQuartier, Emporium, EmSphere, and The Mall Lifestore at Ngamwongwan, Bangkae, and Bangkapi, as well as at Paragon Department Store.

With over 800 products from roughly 130 distinguished Italian brands, the showcase serves as a comprehensive hub for exclusive Italian goods, many of which are rarely seen on local shelves.

Highlighting the event are luxurious items such as Giaveri Beluga & Siberian caviar, Venchi Chocoviar chocolates, Guglielmi organic olive oil, Colavita Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP, and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese aged for 24 months.

For the connoisseur of unique flavors, truffle-infused delicacies like Sacchi Tartufi Black Truffle Paste and Geofoods Honey with Truffle are available.

In addition, the showcase offers an array of Italian pasta types, specialty snacks, and the visually striking Red Pop apples, celebrated for their vibrant red hue and crisp texture.

The culinary experience extends beyond shopping with an array of cooking workshops and tasting sessions that spotlight traditional Italian recipes.

One notable workshop features Fettuccine Alfredo, a dish steeped in controversy but undeniably Italian, famed for its simple yet rich blend of pasta, Parmesan cheese, and butter. Other tastings include beef lasagna, along with an assortment of ready-to-eat Italian-inspired soups and salads.

For added convenience, visitors can place orders directly at the event using Gourmet Market’s “Call-Chat-Shop” service through LINE (@gourmetmarketth) or online at Gourmet Market Thailand’s website.

Foreign tourists who have the M Expatriate Card can enjoy special promotions, such as discounts on select caviar products and vouchers redeemable during the showcase.
