This paper analyses the practices of two Peruvian restaurant owners in Turin in relation to the process of capitalization of the gastronomic culture of their country of origin. This complex mechanism of social engineering aligned with the process of valorisation of the contemporary culinary phenomenon involves a wide network of actors both in the politic and socio-economic field. Their work as ambassadors of the gastronomic culture in Italy proves to be a mission of personal emancipation that gives them the possibility to form an alternative identity within the migration discourse.
