Exciting news to share! Kitchen Culinaire is going to Puglia and you are invited.
Located in southern Italy, Puglia is renowned for its stunning landscapes and local produce. Last summer I spent three weeks volunteering with Messors, an organization that runs art restoration and culinary workshops in the region. I fell in love with the landscape, the people, the culture and especially the food. Learning to make orecchiette by hand, foraging for wild edibles, picnicking in olive groves, visiting local cheese makers. Everyday there was a new and amazing culinary adventure. I was so inspired by my time at Messors, I couldn’t wait to start planning a Kitchen Culinaire Puglian adventure for September 2015. Sarolta and I have been hard at work putting together a food-centric itinerary to showcase the magic of this region.

Our 8-day journey will include walking tours of markets in nearby villages where the freshest local, seasonal food is enticingly displayed, visits to the shops of artisan bakers, butchers and cheese makers, stops at vineyards and olive groves, and of course plenty of cooking classes to make the most of all of our delicious daily discoveries.
Accommodations will be at the Masseria La Selva, an elegantly rustic 18th century hunting lodge. This magnificent location will be our home base for the cooking classes, wine, cheese and olive oil tastings, and al fresco dining under the stars. An experience not to be missed!
Dates are September 10th to 17th. Autumn in Puglia!
