Lucullian Delights and Un Tocco di Zenzero proudly presents: Cooking Classes in Chianti!
Sandra, who runs the successful Italian food blog Un Tocco di Zenzero and who is a well-known gastronomy teacher in Turin here in Italy, and I have decided to join forces and to start this adventure together and we hope that you will join us. The first, but hopefully not the last, cooking class will take place the weekend 16-18th of April here in Tuscany at Podere Patrignone, a wonderful place right in the middle of the Chianti countryside (you can see San Gimignano from the windows) where you can relax and dedicate yourself to some real Italian cooking. The emphasis will be on seasonal cooking so you will get a taste of springtime in Italy. We will live and cook in a small villa full of inspiring atmosphere with a large kitchen and in order to give you the attention you deserve, we have decided to limit the participants to 10 people so be quick to sign up!
The classes will be spread over Friday 16th (afternoon), Saturday 17th (lunch and dinner) and Sunday 18th (lunch and dinner) and they will also include a wine tasting session on one of the days. The price will be 750€ per person and that includes lodgings (in a double room) food (2 breakfasts, 2 lunches & 3 dinners), drink, wine tasting and the teaching. The closest and most convenient airport is the Florence Peretola Airport but you can also fly to Pisa Airport. You can find detailed directions how to get to the Podere Patrignone here and here. To sign up or to get more information, please contact me at luculliandelights AT gmail DOT com or Sandra at cucina AT untoccodizenzero DOT com as soon as you can, you never know if there are any spaces left, do you? We are looking forward to meet you!
Work conference that weekend, otherwise I would be SOOOO tempted! Lucky people who can make it there!
This looks so completely amazing that I’m heartbroken to miss it!
Oh, I wish!
What fun! How I wish I could be there. Best of luck with this new venture.
That sounds absolutely wonderful! I hope you will be able to share the whole experience here later, as I could not possibly join the event in “real life”
Good luck with the preparations, I am sure it will be a huge success!

You probably can guess what I am thinking right now…. I wish I wish! Good luck with this excellent idea!
This is very interesting and the price is affordable too (even with my current financial restrictions). I can’t drive though which is why I haven’t been to Tuscany for a long time now.
Already making my plans just organizing costs with husband tonight. Karen and Nanette – oh come on! Won’t it be fun? I’m not bugging Görel as she has *sigh* work that weekend. Husband already booked one weeks vacation at work so we can come to Italy and I can take these classes.
Your cooking classes sound terrific! I’m going to play the Lotto right now. When I win, I’ll see you in class.
Best wishes,
Paz
How wonderful. I’m sure everyone will have a fantastic time, How can you not withthe location and the two of you teaming up…in boca al lupo!
Inspired – best of luck and I am sure we will be hearing more about it – I shall open a bottle of something nice to go with tonight’s pasta, and rasie a glass to your success xxx
Oh you tease! Attending this, living in, cooking and eating with you for a whole weekend!!
How I would adore that, one day! Fingers crossed!
In the meantime I wish you all the success in the world, it’s utterly brilliant!! xx
If I could afford this, I would fly from Boston, just for the weekend! This sounds amazing…

Terrific idea! I’m excited! Can’t make this one but late summer / early fall would be great! Wish you the best!
We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull, Some have weird names , and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box.............................................
Thank you ALL; I wish you could join us, how fun that would be! The chatter!
If wishes were horses Ilva, beggars would ride…
Sigh, this sounds like a dream! I wish …
bonne chance Ilva !! will be in the Maremma two weeks before but will think of you ! I look forward seeing the nice “ticket” you will post after that.
Una prossima volta con piacere
