Slow Food was founded in Italy 1986 by the eminent Italian food critic and journalist Carlo Petrini. The international movement was launched in Paris in 1989.

Through education, and what Petrini termed the eco-gastronomic intervention, Slow seeks to conserve endangered seed, breed, cultivar, and process. This scenario is exemplified in the following anecdote: up at the top of a Tuscan valley, there are only two eighty-year old men remaining who know how to make the local sausage, a delicacy based upon a similarly endangered breed of a hardy little red cow. The Slow intervention involves the enlistment of young people to learn the sausage-making technique]

Laudible but can you see more than one of these restaurants taking off in Ballsbridge, let alone a few in the same development. This is misinterpretation for the sake of marketing. Slow food, I can actually see that phrase becoming as popular as ‘mixed use development’, ‘urban dentistry’, etc. etc. etc. jargon.. jargon…jargon..:cool:
