Tuscany, Italy Barbara Kingstone January 19, 2011 Cuisine, Italy Although I’ve managed to see many of my childhood fantasy destinations, Italy, especially Tuscany, continues to pop up often in my day dreams. There are two things I adore- travelling and cooking and Doorways Villa Vacations makes that destination a no -brainer. There are cooking classes even for the kiddies if you happen to have a few in tow and wonder what to do with them. I saw the most adorable activity, kids’ actually entranced by the idea of getting their hands-on the pasta class. Top Italian chefs come to the villa and teach both youngsters and adults (theirs is a more sophisticated menu) how to make various pizzas from scratch including a dessert pizza. But my favorite part of the day was the walking trip to market with local experts and then eating the produce at dinner. (info@doorwaysltd.com)
