Anchor's Away, The S.Pellegrino Cooking Cup Sets Sail In A Month

It's that time of the year where sailing and cooking come together during the S. Pellegrino Cooking Cup. The 12th edition of the regatta is an exclusive opportunity to enjoy two great Italian passions- fine dining and the sea - in the gorgeous blue waters of the Venice lagoon.

The special regatta will take place between the Lido of Venice and San Giorgio Island from 22-23rd June.  It is a very unique event which features a sailing race and a simultaneous cooking competition.  While skipppers try set the wind in their favor, chefs abord the vessels will be cooking below the deck. The best combination of navigation and cookery will win the S. Pellegrino Cooking Cup.

Even more exciting, a second regatta will take place within the larger race. The ''Inside the Cooking'' involves the participation of a select number of chefs from all over the world who will cook fine dishes in hopes of winning the  Acqua Panna &  S. Pellegrino Young Chef of the Year. For a glimpse of what's to come, watch the video of last year's edition of the S. Pellegrino Cooking Cup.
