The gastronomic festival-journey will be held in Vladivostok on September 23-25. According to Rostourism, the geography of participants is unprecedented - from the Arctic to the Far East.
“The main objective of the festival is to show the scale and ethno-cultural diversity of Russia, where the capital of the Far East can become a year-round platform for presenting the potential of Russian gastronomic regions,” Rostourism reports on its website.
The geographical position allows positioning the capital of Primorye as the starting point of a gastronomic journey through Russia for residents of the Far East and tourists from Asian countries, the department noted.
Over 100 restaurateurs and chefs from all over the country will open their gastronomic “headquarters” in Vladivostok. Among them are the authors of projects from the Murmansk region, the Krasnoyarsk and Kamchatka regions, Udmurtia, the Tula region and Moscow, Buryatia and Yakutia, as well as the best projects of the Far Eastern cuisine of the Primorsky Territory.
As noted in the Federal Tourism Agency, during the festival, the Central Square of Vladivostok will turn into the largest open-air gastronomic quarter in Russia.
“More than 200 types of dishes and drinks from the Arctic to the Far East will be presented here: dishes from the Far Eastern and Arctic seafood - scallop, crab, cod and salmon; Buryat buuzas, Yakut dalrabs and chir stroganina, Ossetian pies and Karelian wickets, venison beef stroganoff and reindeer moss chips, Pomeranian cod stew, Russian chunks with fillings and much more,” the ministry said.
The festival will feature a School of Far Eastern Cuisine with culinary master classes from the best chefs from the regions of the Russian Far East.
The curator of the festival is Ekaterina Shapovalova, author and leader of the Gastronomic Map of Russia project.
The festival will be held within the framework of the Rostourism forum “Gastronomic tourism in the Russian Federation. New opportunities".
