During Italian Cuisine Week Restaurants that participated were required to prepare their signature Tiramisu in their own style representing their restaurants, however, they had to use the main ingredients of the Classic Tiramisu recipe which included Eggs, Sugar, Mascarpone, Coffee, Ladyfingers, Cream, & Cocoa Powder. These restaurants offered complimentary Tiramisu desserts to their clients who ordered full meals from the menu. These diners were then requested to give their true opinion of their Tiramisu experience and vote for the best Tiramisu in town.

During the week the visiting Italian Chef Guiseppe Geraci together with Chef Pietro Guido went around all the restaurants and judged the for the best.

The final judging and awarding of the winners was done by the Italian Ambassador H.E Roberto Natali and his wife and Mr Mansoor Jiwani a former chef and founder of the Chefs Delight Awards. The visiting chefs also got the chance to judge the Tiramisu. Chefs and restaurant owners displayed their Tiramisu creations before the judges and each gave a description of what they had on display. The judging criteria included Presentation, Taste and Overall Experience.

The literal meaning of Tiramisu in Italian is “pick me up” or “cheer me up”. As the name implies, this is an iconic Italian dessert that is served at the end of the meal.
