Amatriciana, a symbol of Lazio’s traditional cuisine, will be celebrated with a worldwide International Amatriciana Day, an initiative by the Associazione dei Ristoratori e Albergatori di Amatrice (Aram). The date of the event, yet to be officially announced, will be March 6, in honour of the prestigious qualification of Specialità Tradizionale Garantita (STG), acquired by this excellent pasta dish on March 6, 2020, together with only three Italian products.
The Amatriciana Day was created with the aim of promoting through the whole year Amatrice and its surroundings, a region of great natural and cultural values. The event will represent a significant sign of rebirth for this area severely affected by the tragic earthquake of 2016.
