In everyday life, we encounter the moments that make us feel happy and excited.
Flowers that are beautifully blooming.
A blue sky that stretches out endlessly.
Sunset over the horizon, sea sparkled in the sunshine, trees radiating overwhelming energy.
The favorite music and movies.
Encounters with wonderful people, the time spent with someone we love.
All of those things make our heart beaten with excitement.
cucchiaio thinks that “food” is also one of them.
When we taste something we have never known before.
When we feel the grace of rich nature.
When we come in touch with culture of a country where we have never visited, by knowing their dishes.
When we feel a new breeze, through food experience.
A warm feeling will certainly reside in our heart and we will be enveloped by happiness.
Believing so, cucchiaio proposes a little sip to color our daily life through "food”.
