Love Indonesian Cuisine, Ayu Azhari Attends the Inauguration of the Indonesian Gastronomy Community (IGC)

Kapanlagi.com - Actress Ayu Azhari attended the virtual inauguration of the Indonesian Gastronomy Community (IGC) which took place recently. Ayu Azhari's presence at this event is because she often promotes Indonesian culture and cuisine. Therefore, Ayu Azhari feels that communities like IGC should exist.

"Indonesian cuisine is not only diverse in its types but also has unique flavors in each region. For example, gudeg is the same but the taste is different between the Sundanese and Javanese versions, but equally delicious," said Ayu Azhari in the webinar.

"Or pempek from Bangka and Palembang, we can also recognize that this is pempek Palembang and this is pempek Bangka (each has its own advantages). It all depends on the region and its people," Ayu continued.

IGC is a non-profit community that has a vision to advance Indonesia. With all its efforts, it becomes a preserver of food and beverages in the homeland.

Meanwhile, Gastronomy itself is the art of good eating, which studies the relationship of food in relation to the knowledge of history and culture of a region, as the local wisdom of the local community.

"The big vision and mission of IGC will certainly not be easily realized without support and participation from various parties to advance Indonesia by empowering Indonesian food and beverages through work and joining IGC," said Ria Musiawan, as the Chairman of the Indonesian Gastronomy Community.

Although held virtually, this event was also enlivened by several figures. Including the presence of Agus Marsudi, the husband of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Retno Marsudi, who read a poem entitled Kangen.
