I think this family’s traditional cuisine in Rome would be right up my alley!
Or dinner with a chef in Tuscany…
Rooftop tapas in Barcelona, perhaps?
Or maybe, maybe a “taste of the fruits of French soil” in Paris?
What do you think? Is this something you would do when you are traveling?

This looks like a beautiful idea, Sandy. I think I mentioned my farm house cooking lesson in Tuscany where we learned some rustic kitchen tips from the woman whose family farmed the land next to the hotel we were staying at. It was so special to be invited into her home, to tour their kitchen garden and see their olive oil and wine stores (made from their own trees and vines). A fantastic memory! So, yes, I would be up for a similar experience. Sounds like and adventure!
Happy Wednesday! XOXO

This looks like such a great idea! I have to do some further investigation so that on my next trip I can try this. I hope that your trip went well and that you had a lot of fun.

I absolutely would do this, for sure! What great images to not only give me the travel bug, but to have a roman feast in my own home. Hi sandy! Anita

We'd absolutely do this! In fact, one of us traveled through Vietnam and ate with a local family – very adventurous and we still don't know what we ate… Next time, we'll dine with a handsome Italian chef! Hope you're staying dry in all this rain.
xxoo
