Ri gastro and Rijeka’s caterers are organizing a special edition of the event dedicated to the promotion of the gastronomic traditions and cultures of the countries whose minorities live and work in these areas. The event doubles as an introduction to the Porto Etno World music and gastro festival.
Welcome to the Ri gastro Porto Etno!
The flagship dubbed “Kitchen of Diversity” best embodies the “Port of Diversity”, a slogan under which Rijeka carries the prestigious title of European Capital of Culture for the year 2020, all the while helping foster tolerance and solidarity.
Rijeka’s caterers also join in, driven by the event’s multicultural spirit, inviting you to enjoy and discover new scents and flavours that will spice up our city at the beginning of September.
