Message from Il Delegato:

The Italian Academy of Cuisine is a special interest cultural institution of the Italian Republic founded by Orio Vergani in Milan in 1953, & subsequently publically registered in 1988. It was then listed with the Prefecture of Milan in the register of legal entities in 2001.

The mission of the “Accademia della Cucina” is to protect the traditions of Italian cuisine, & promote & encourage its improvement in Italy & abroad. The Italian Academy of Cuisine is a private association recognised as a non-profit, non-political & non-ideological legal entity inspired by the democratic principle of full access for all.

The fundamental objectives around which the activities of the Accademia revolve are: the safeguarding of the culture & civilisation of the Italian table, promoting & favouring its diffusion in Italy & abroad, & underlining the force of tradition.

The Accademia has delegations throughout Italy & in virtually every nation in the world that organise culinary events based around the Italian cuisine. It publishes lists of restaurants in Italy & abroad which have been reviewed & accredited on the recommendations of its delegations. It also provides detailed insights in the Italian cuisine, its ingredients & traditions.

The Brisbane chapter of the Accademia intends to pursue the objectives of the Accademia by collaborating with culinary establishments & organising events in the south-east Queensland regions to explore, promote & value the Italian cuisine.

Buon Appetito!
