Your Culinary Journey in Tuscany

Italy, a treasure trove of art, music, architecture, and history, is a country that captivates the hearts of many. Known for its stunning landscapes and rich traditions, Italy is universally adored for its exquisite food and wine. Each province boasts its own culinary specialties, shaped by the local soil, age-old customs, and the changing seasons.

 

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Chef Instructor Giuseppe has a wealth of knowledge and a passion for cooking. Born and raised in this picturesque location, Giuseppe shares insider tips, guiding you to discover the finest produce, cheeses, and olive oils that Tuscany has to offer. His membership in the Italian Wine Sommelier Association adds a unique dimension to our classes, allowing for expertly curated wine pairings that complement each dish.

Join us for a personalized and unforgettable day as we embark on a shopping adventure at the vibrant local market in Montecatini Terme. Here, you will learn about the regional vendors and their specialties, all while hand-selecting the best seasonal produce. After a short drive into the serene countryside, arrive at Il Molino, the beautifully restored mill that houses The Olive Press Kitchen. Under Giuseppe’s guidance, you will prepare a delightful four-course meal that promises to become a cherished culinary memory.
