The 5th International Gastromasa Conference, where gastronomy and food experts from all over the world came together, was held at the Haliç Congress Center. In the conference held to introduce Turkish culture to the world and to contribute to the development of gastronomy in Turkey, 21 famous chefs from 18 different countries including Albert Adria, Elena Arzak, Virgilio Martinez, Soren Selin, Paco Roncero, Pia Leon, Andoni Luis Aduriz, Pierre Marcolini, Andreas Caminada, Cristina Bowerman and Gaston Acurio, were hosted.

Barilla, the most important representative of the Italian gastronomic culture, was among the participants of the conference this year, too. Barilla attracted the attention of the participants with its booth that brought the pasta together with art. The works created by the leading names of different art branches such as fashion, music and painting inspired by pasta were exhibited at the Barilla stand.

Famous fashion designer Özlem Süer designed an outfit based on her own pasta style. Eataly Executive Chef Claudio Chinali took the work one step further by pouring the pasta shape designed by Süer into the plate. Both the clothing designed by Süer and the pasta plate prepared by Chinali were exhibited at the stand. In addition to the artwork, pasta tasting was also carried out at the Barilla stand. Three types of pasta recipes prepared by Eataly Executive Chef Claudio Chinali flavored the event.
