S.Pellegrino® Destination Dining Returns With A Culinary Series Exchanging Iconic Dishes Between World-Famous Restaurants

ARLINGTON, Va., Aug. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- S.Pellegrino® Sparkling Natural Mineral Water's Destination Dining program returns this fall with an expanded series to connect more communities through culinary cultural immersion, one dish at a time. S.Pellegrino has partnered with restaurants across the U.S. and Latin America — in Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami and New York, and internationally in Argentina, Brazil, Panama and Peru — to exchange their most iconic dishes, bringing a taste of a new community to food lovers.

Now in its second installment, S.Pellegrino® Destination Dining will kick off with a pair of world-renowned restaurants trading quintessential dishes each week, extending travel possibilities via locally served bites. A multi-city culinary exchange, Destination Dining allows diners to experience dishes from miles away, while also supporting their neighborhood restaurants. The dishes will be available at each participating restaurant for one week for in-person dining, takeout or delivery (as available at each restaurant).

"Destination dining is my constant. I love having people search us out and discover our passions, but most of all, it takes you to areas out of your comfort zone," said Chef Michelle Bernstein, Café La Trova in Miami. "I've always found people to change and expect the unexpected when they leave their own 'backyard' so to speak. We bring them into our world and give them something new, fun and delicious!"

In an effort to continue the brand's longstanding commitment to supporting the culinary community, S.Pellegrino is encouraging consumers to support their local restaurants by dining out and enjoying a new type of cuisine or notable dish from another city.

"Even as travel resumes, people are craving unique dining and cultural experiences in their hometowns and in everyday life," said Filippo Mazzaia, Senior Market Development Manager for S.Pellegrino. "With Destination Dining, food lovers can explore iconic dishes from other communities, helping to rediscover the importance of togetherness and appreciating one another's heritage, while also supporting their favorite local restaurants."   

Destination Dining kicks off with swaps between prominent restaurants in Miami and Latin America — a new pairing will take place each week throughout August, beginning on the 13th — followed by exchanges in Chicago, New York and Los Angeles throughout September and October.
