Highlights in 2015 include….
Puglia, Southern Italy
Authentic Puglian cooking set in an elegant, rural converted
masseria (farmhouse) – total immersion
in the food and culture of this unspoilt region of Italy. Plenty of hands on
cooking, make orecchiette ‘ear shaped’ pasta regional to Puglia. Learn how to
taste olive oil ‘the Italian way’ in an area that produces 70% of the total oil
production in Italy.
Atlas mountains and
Marrakech, Morocco
An exotic Moroccan cooking holiday starting in the village
of Imlil in the Atlas mountains and ending, by way of contrast, in the bustling
and colourful markets of Marrakech where we enjoy two cooking sessions in Riad
Monceau. A truly authentic experience – discover the food culture that is so
intertwined with every day life, for example, the boulangerie and the hammam in
Imlil share the same building and wood fired stove!
A Roman gastronomic
experience in Frascati, Rome
On our gastronomic tour of Castelli Romani, just beyond
Rome, we stay in the pretty town of Frascati (name sake of the sparkling wines)
where we are treated to an exclusive Roman culinary adventure, with our very
own Roman resident guide Stefano Spinetti. Markets, restaurants, wine and food
tastings, authentic pizza making, and lakeside Roman picnics…..
Classic Wine Tour of
Piemonte, Northern Italy
Enjoy a wine tour of Piemonte during truffle season – a
beautiful region bursting with delicious wines including Barolo and Barbresco.
We guide you to some of the most famous, and unusual wineries in the area,
