Personal
Chef, Food & Travel writer, culinary Instructor, Kathy Ayer will be your guide through this wonderful adventure of
food, lifestyle, culture and traditions of Puglia. Ms.
Ayer, with the help of Lecce native, Ylenia Sambati of YLTours,
created a special 9-day/8-night food and wine tour.
Offered on September 1 through 9th, 2012, Ms Ayer describes the event, “ You will not only taste the many delicacies
of the region, but you'll also cook them! “
This is far more than a ‘cooking class’, the lucky 12 participants will reside
at the elegant-rustic Masseria
Provenzanni, http://bit.ly/NO8Ttk
located
outside of the Baroque city of Lecce and close to the sea and experience the
best that Puglia has to offer.
Your stay is scheduled with
cooking lessons, demonstrations, wine and olive oil tastings, guided tours of many local towns and
villages, home cooked meals, visits to the local market, gelato and pastry
shops. There will also be time to enjoy
the beach or relax at the pool at the Masseria Provenzanni. All your arrangements are provide as well
as a local guide.
“Imagine preparing local seasonal dishes at a winery and
then dining on these dishes with the local wines. Making
handmade Pugliese pasta and traditional meals with an Italian mamma. Watching
fresh cheese being made and digging into the still-warm freshly-made, creamy
ricotta. Sampling seafood right out of its shell just minutes after it's been
caught. Visiting a pastry shop to learn about the sweet side of Salento, with
samples, of course. Walking tours of Baroque Lecce, the fisherman's village of
Gallipoli, the seaside resort town of Otranto, the Trulli of the Itria Valley
and the "white city" of Ostuni. These are just a few of the
highlights of this trip, and there's so much more...” is how Ms Ayer describes this event.
More than a vacation, this is an
experience to ‘live Italian’ the way most tourists ever can. And if you have Italian roots you can
reconnect with foods and techniques that may have been ‘in the family’ for
decades.
