Miami, FL – February 20, 2025 – Italy was experienced like never before at South Beach Wine & Food Festival’s A Taste of Italy in the Miami Design District.

Presented by Campari and hosted by the dynamic Nadia Caterina Munno, aka The Pasta Queen, the event transported guests to la dolce vita with a walk-around tasting featuring a dozen all-star chefs, each eager to serve their Italian favorites.

Known for her contagious energy, authentic recipes, and passion for sharing the beauty of Italy, Nadia— a two-time The New York Times and international best-selling author of The Pasta Queen: A Just Gorgeous Cookbook and The Art of Italian Cooking—signed copies of her books during the event, giving fans a chance to connect with her world of authentic Italian food, family, and culture.

From cheesy baked pastas to decadent, reimagined dishes perfect for al fresco dining, the evening was a feast for the senses at Jungle Plaza in the Miami Design District.
