The idea of
this blog stems from the desire to convey salient aspects of the national
culture by relating the gastronomy and the strong coinage by women that
characterize the pavilion and the Angolan society. Hence the name “Angola in
pink sauce”.
We talk
about cuisine by introducing recipes and dishes. Guided by the two chefs of the
pavilion we find out about ingredients. Chef Kitaba will reveal us the secrets
of traditional food, while Chef Elsa Viana remodels dishes for a European and
international taste.
Starting
from the kitchen, we discover Angola also through its music, art and tourism.
We explore
the different musical styles, talk about dancing, and show you the steps of the
most popular dances. We also present you the most famous artists of the
national and international scene.
Departing
from our contemporary art exhibitions in the pavilion, we dive into the artistic
scene of Angola and dabble into the design and fashion world.
The aim of
the blog is to reveal some of the marvels of the Angolan landscape, make them
known to a public outside the country and propose touristic cues for journeys.
We wish to
“narrate” Angola by the stories of those who are close to the country, giving
priority to women – in accordance to the importance they have in our Pavilion
and really also in Angolan Society.
