We love good food!
It is the common bond between all people. All over the world you will find people around the table sharing great stories and unique experiences while breaking bread and enjoying life to its fullest.
Everyone is a friend at the table, laughing (some from too much wine) and one person proudly looking on, at the moment they have created. Welcome home...

An example of Fine Cooking: The Tuscan
The Tuscan is a private cooking school in Italy offering a cooking vacation.
Courses are hands-on under the guidance of professional Italian chef and sommelier, Valter Roman, and also feature guest chefs from around the world including Alvaro Maccioni of La Famiglia restaurant in London.
Alvaro is a passionate advocate of using fresh, seasonal produce and traditional methods of cooking in Italy. He believes that 'if a chef cooks like his mother, he is a great chef. If he cooks like his grandmother, he is even greater!' Valter believes cooking is not just a matter of weights and measures and following a recipe but of feeling and instinct and hands-on experience.

Alvaro and Valter’s taste of cooking in Italy is a special blend of only the finest ingredients in life. Together in this cooking vacation, you will learn to be experimental yet not lose sight of the true Tuscan flavours and disciplines in cooking.
You will be encouraged to explore the tastes and textures of some of the finest and freshest ingredients on an inspiring cooking vacation in and out of the kitchen and you will discover, recognize and start to understand the true soul of cooking in Italy and how Italian food really should taste.
