It’s on Saturday, September 22, 2012 that we will be celebrating this year’s Gastronomy Festival. This second edition will be themed around Terroirs: tradition and creation.
This festival, which went somewhat unnoticed last year, nevertheless offered many very interesting free activities, especially in Paris, and I strongly encourage you to try to participate this year.
I therefore advise you to look closely at the event program to make the most of this day.
