Galician Gastronomy has now its own website
The excellent Galician cuisine has now gotten its own web portal on the Internet, www.gastronomiadegalicia.com.
This website has been created as apart of the “Gastronomic Plan for the Holy year 2010” that has as its goal to “consolidate Galician gastronomy and convert Galicia into a gastronomic tourist destination”, said the tourist and culture minister of Galicia Roberto Varela at a recent press conference.
Varela explained that this would be the portal to use when you are planning your gastronomic trip to Galicia. Nature and gastronomy are important factors for Galician tourism and with this portal it will be easier to plan your trip. It includes information on things like appellations of Origin, cultural related feasts, glossary and a specialized reference area.
As there will be various gastronomic events in Galician during next year’s holy year this site will also help promote these events. This portal has been developed with support from the Spanish Royal Academy of Gastronomy. Its president, Rafael Ansón, focused on the fact that Galicia has the best raw material and the best variety of seafood products in all of Europe.
Another collaborator on this Project is Gas Natural-Unión Fenosa, which spokesperson Jordi García Taberno mentioned that this is a good opportunity to join new technology and gastronomy to expand the gastronomic culture of Galicia to the rest of the world.
