I had mentioned earlier about my visit to Anuga. Now is the time to offload myself of that experience.
With 96 countries and close to 7000+ participants and an innumerable flood of visiors, this surely has been an unforgetable experience for me. I felt, it was more of a food carnival with added benefits of getting business done. There is so much of discourse, discussion & sampling among people who speak only one language i.e. FOOD!
No other food exhibition in the world is as exhaustive in content. There were 10 categories in which the halls were divided. Each country having their individual pavilions in each respective categories. There were also these independent exhibitors with extremely elaborate stalls (these could hardly be called as stalls. They were exhibition halls in their own capacity).
It was amazing to observe people from each of these countries. Their culture, reflected in all their behaviours & their mannerisms. I had gone to Anuga to widen my horizons about the food world instead I ended up imbibing their culture as well.
The learning on the types of Olives, Peppers, Mushrooms, Nuts were just a few to name. I wish I could enumerate the warmth & respect I gathered from the exhibitors.
Innovations in food products as well as in technology was at its very best. A sticky rice sandwich ( called RICEWICH) a Soya Wrap roll, were just two to name.
Anuga is an experience that one just cant forget. Describing it all in one article is almost unachievable; hence I will try to give you a more exacting account of the entire food fest. I feel anybody, who is anybody in the food industry, must visit Anuga once. I have personally decided to make it every second year. The experience is amazing!
