Fast Cars Slow Food TT
The pleasure of speed. The taste of the table. Winning symbols always in the wake of the made in Italy and under the sign of the greyhound.
“Italy is far and wide, longer than wide to be experienced” comments Tomaso Trussardi, leader of the “Fast Cars Slow Food” project born after the years of Covid as collective leverage for a great restart.
“I come from Bergamo – he says – and our city today capital of culture 2023 together with Brescia, suffered a lot, torn apart by the pandemic but it didn’t surrender.
And as soon as possible it got back to life, like our style.
I started designing virtuous routes to share with special cars to achieve special places to enjoy special dishes.
Well, maybe not everything is so special: on safety and viability there would be plenty to do, some inns should improve their hospitality, some trattorias review some dishes on the menu. However my travel mates always enjoy it and he events are going great”. Fast Cars Slow Food is the initiative born from the passions and by the enterprising spirit of Tomaso. From experience of the Trussardi family, a name that has become a trademark among the realities that have dictated the law in the fashion system in particular and in the luxury sector in general, Tomaso wanted to unite two worlds reflecting the multiple elements evident of the definition of “Italianness” involving in exclusive tours true enthusiasts of cars and enthusiasts of food, lived in an emotional way.
That’s why he feels perfectly comfortable in the his new role as “ambassador” of the Motor Valley, the consortium of car manufacturers in Emilia Romagna which includes Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, Pagani, Dallara and Ducati, also synonymous with culinary culture.
Tomaso’s passion for the world of engines flourishes from deep roots in the experience of Trussardi family: from the design of helicopters, sports cars, motorcycles and even Alitalia interiors, Tomaso has been able to breathe the worlds of technology and design and high speed.
As for catering, the father Nicola, a visionary, was the first to connect fashion, art and cuisine, opening his own restaurant in 1996 near the Scala Theatre in Milan. “Fast Cars Slow Food is for those who want to put themselves to the test, who want to leave to discover the places where excellence is hidden Italian but who have lost the battle of tourism, who want to be appreciated for the small realities that they are and the great legacy they represent.” Always according with “made in Italy” and under the banner of greyhound.
