I was reading through the speech by Ambassador of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to Malaysia from a leaflet, where a line caught my eyes which stated "In Venezuela, one of our popular beliefs is that "7" is a lucky number." Well, I second that because I myself love the number 7, was born in the month of July and also this very month, I attended 2 big events celebrating the lucky number 7, which included Wondermilk's 7th Cuppa Cakes Show & just 7 days ago (7 again?!! what coincidence!)...the 7th Venezuelan Week in Malaysia. So, 7 is indeed a lucky number! ;)
The launch of the Venezuelan's Gastronomic Festival was held on the 16 April 2012 at Renaissance Hotel. Hosted by The Embassy of the Bolivarian Republic of Venzuela in Malaysia, the event was attended by distinguished guests, invited print media and bloggers.
In collaboration with Renaissance Hotel, they had exclusively invited Venezuela's very own food consultant and food writer, Chef Carmen Rawstron to showcase the traditional and specialty of Venezuelan cuisine and culture.
