From August 24 to 30, Ali&Cia participated in the Traditional Cookery Congress held in Mexico City. Throughout the week we held a series of workshops to create a festive triumphal arch and parade in honour of food sovereignty for the closing ceremony.

Devorar Segovia
On June 6 Ali&Cia and Segovia 2016 presented Devorar Segovia. More than 90 of the city's citizens came together in six different groups over the course of a month to create a 24 m2 model of the city made entirely out of food. It's estimated that 1,500 people were served their city on a plate at the foot of the aqueduct by the light of the full moon. Check out the following videos (in Spanish):
