18-1-2019
The Lebanese Ambassador to France, Rami Adwan, hosted yesterday a meeting on the diplomacy of culinary arts (la diplomatie des arts culinaires) at the Lebanese embassy in Paris to promote the marketing of made-in-Lebanon agricultural and rural foods. The event which saw the presence of the agriculture ministry’s director general, Louis Lahoud, included the screening of a documentary ‘Lebanese cuisine and tasting of Lebanese foods’. Lahoud on the occasion, praised the continuous cooperation between the Lebanese diplomatic missions in the world and his ministry to step up the marketing of Lebanese cuisine internationally. Lahoud pointed out that after the success in 2018 of the Lebanese Day in Hungary, preparations are underway for holding similar events in Serbia, Dubai, Poland, Brazil and Paris during the current year, stressing that Lebanese production which observed international specifications shall stand out in Arab countries, in Europe and everywhere else in the world. Lahoud also urged the Lebanese diaspora to contribute to the promotion of Lebanese products in support of local farmers and producers, and presented the ministry’s program to this end. Adwan, for his part, emphasized the role of the embassy as a facilitator in increasing the export of Lebanese food to France. (Al Mustaqbal, January 18, 2019)
