Cous Cous Fest. Music, Seaside and Good Food is the slogan that
introduces the "Cous Cous Fest", a peaceful culinary "summit"
which has become a symbol and link between the cultures of the Mediterranean
and elsewhere.

Cous
cous by any other name
Maftoul, kseksou, cuscus, cuscussù, cascasa, sekso, kskso,
kuskus, kuski, burgul, tabouleh, in one word bran, in two COUS
COUS. Setting aside the linguistic differences, cous cous is
a universal food, one of the world's most common dishes today,
along with rice and pasta. It is durum wheat bran, fine as desert
sand, skilfully ground into fine grains then steam-cooked. Cous
cous may have originated as a "poor" dish, but it
is rich in history and tradition, dating back from time immemorial.
San Vito Lo Capo cous cous celebrates the universality of this
food.

|
| Cous Cous the world
over |
Expert hands move swiftly,
skilfully and imaginatively to create dishes rich in flavour and tradition.
Cous cous is a blend of brans and a blend of cultures, a great excuse
to invite the greatest chefs from to San Vito Lo Capo for an appetising
competition for the Best Cous Cous award. The prestigious title will
be awarded by an international panel of reporters, opinion makers
and experts from the fields of travel and enogastronomy.

The
dish of peace
|
A blend of histories
and cultures, cous cous is a ritual that brings four continents together.
Peoples of completely different origins - not only geographically
speaking - come together in San Vito Lo Capo, where gastronomic tradition
and hospitality meet history and religious ritual, overcoming diversity
and welcoming their differences. Stands in the Cous Cous dal Mondo
village and the Casa del Cous Cous sanvitese will feature the star
of the show appearing in a host of different versions with meat, fish
and vegetables.

Man shall not live by
bran alone
and the San Vito event in September offers a unique
occasion to attract explorers of gastronomy from all over the world.
An itinerary exploring flavours and ethnic and anthropological traditions
on the trail of a rich, imaginative culinary tradition, a selection
of foods which are direct, wholesome expressions of the identity of
the land, promoting typical local products and unusual combinations
of food and wine in a series of technical workshops, cooking courses,
discussions with experts and nutritionists, theme events and great
cooking washed down with island's best wines. A festival of dishes
and flavours, and more: a village offering the best of crafts, tourism,
food and agriculture from Italy and all over the world.
