[CUISINE ADAGIO] Villa Ginezzo Tuscany

A week has passed and the adventure of our food/art retreat is well underway.

Each evening we treat our guests to a feast, prepared by Susie or Lori, with emphasis on the local produce. We are actually on the border of Umbria, and here the local produce is very meat oriented.

So, Vitello Tonato, slow cooked lamb, roasted pork, are a few of the local dishes.

Spaghetti vongole, Fusilli al pesto, Risotto with Zucchini flowers, and Risotto with seafood, have been presented as starters.

We invited the owner of the villa one evening for dinner and this is what he had to say the next day

Dear Susie,

Thank you so much for being invited to your yesterday's dinner party. It was fantastic and I nearly don’t remember when I was eating so well in the last years.

A wonderful composition of Italian food, absolutely tasty and balanced, under a wine pergola. And what a dream of a dessert… 

My compliments. Please keep me on your guest list.

Thanks again,
Rudi

Will keep you on the guest list also if you want to join us - we are here for the month of July.

Buon Appetito !
