ORPI (Order of Italian Professional Restaurateurs) was created in Milan in 1984, with the aim of promoting, presenting, circulating and protecting on an International and National level Italian cuisine, conveyed through this country's wide tradition of regional recipes, of agro-alimentary products and traditional wines, and preserving throughout time its genuine and varied original flavours.The Order is respected also by Institutional Organisations and leading companies in the alimentary sector, with the aid of whom it has multiplied its activity of promotion of Italian quality astronomical culture.
ORPI every year promotes and organises events, meetings, conventions and exchanges of experience with sector operators and with the greater public in Italy and abroad, dealing with Europe, United States, Canada, Latin America, Asia and Australia.
ORPI affiliates, present in all Italian regions, have had to pass a selection that proved their having professional requisites and quality in the presented dishes.
The Order publishes, every year, a precious guide that contains the list of restaurateurs who adhere in Italy and in the world. All information is found in Italian and English (address, how to get there, indicative price), and a precious description of the place and its specialities.
Also, information on DOP and IGT, chef recipes, curiosities on regional cuisines and the indication of traditional dishes. Also interesting is the list of restaurateurs adhering to the Order throughout the world: restaurateurs who have brought Italian cuisine in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania.
