Experience the Weekly Culinary Tour
Offered by Good Tastes of Tuscany

The “Introduction to Tuscan Cuisine” is a cooking tour designed by Good Tastes of Tuscany to let you enjoy Tuscany as a land of authentic and traditional food. Here, you will discover the secrets of our traditional dishes taught by Italian Chefs and you will experience gems such local markets, Chianti region and its wine, small towns and much more: discussions on the history of Tuscan diet, typical dishes and bread, peasant foods and, above all, how gastronomy has changed throughout the medieval and renaissance ages up until modern times.

All of this, with a hands on approach that will guide you into the preparation of our traditional recipes, perfecting the skills of Tuscan cookery in the original kitchen of the 14th Century Villa Pandolfini and the 13rd century Tower Pandolfini.

If you love Tuscany, then this is the cooking tour you have been looking for: charming medieval town, people and their culture, centuries old traditions, art and culture and, of course, the great food and wine of the Good Tastes of Tuscany.
