Ciao, I'm Chef Alfredo de Bonis. Let me tell you a little about my culinary tours of Italy. It all started in 1966 when I was sent to study in Milano. My classes were in Medieval & Renaissance history. While in Italy I had the great fortune to meet a wonderful family in Rome, the Alimandi� It was here during my school breaks and summers that I would spend a great deal of time in Mama Alimandi�kitchen. As the Romans say, I stole my work with my eyes. I watched Signora Dina at work and learned to love cooking, especially Roman cooking. Although she is no longer with us, her spirit remains in the kitchen. The hotel that she founded in 1950 is now run by her children. A few years ago I met a couple from Tuscany with a villa near Lucca. Daniela Grossi, a medical doctor, and Narciso Cervelli, a builder,own Villa Daniela Grossi(www.villadanielagrossi.it) We have joined forces to create a week at the villa with cooking and touring; information on my tour page. I call my trips: Cucina & Cultura.(kitchen & culture) Here I combine my two great loves, Italy & cooking, and now I can share them with you. I designed these trips to be both informative and relaxing. Since the group is limited to 15, I am able to give personalized service to the class both in the kitchen & on tours. I am fluent in Italian, so there is never a communication problem. Come & join me on one of my next trips to Italy. It will be memorable!
