Together with JRE-Italia, our partner in this initiative, we have asked twenty of their top chefs from all over Italy to exalt the raw materials of the Emerald Isle thanks to their skill and we are certain that Italians will once again fall in love with the meat, beef and lamb, and Irish langoustines and oysters, products that are truly good by nature».

Filippo Saporito, president of JRE-Italy, adds: «Excellence and high quality, these are the characteristics that we JRE-Italy seek for our restaurants, which we bring into our kitchens and offer to our customers. That is why when Bord Bia asked us to participate in the 'A Taste of Ireland' initiative, we accepted with great pleasure. Because in this partner we found that quality that represents us. During the initiative, there will be over 20 JRE-Italian chefs who will start from Irish raw materials to create dishes to be savoured in their respective restaurants, each with their own creativity and culinary philosophy.
