i’ve been and the wealth of knowledge you learn is amazing! i’ve never took culinary classes there, but just to be there is a completely different experience than the fast paced life here in the US, and it must affect how good the food tastes there compared to here.

Everywhere in Italy people can find and taste excellent products and wines, and also can enjoy the wonders and the attractions of the cities.
In Emilia-Romagna , for example, we have lots of typical products , not only Parmigiano- Reggiano cheese, Prosciutto of Parma and the Balsamic Vinegar of Modena. We also have Piadina , Passatelli and many types of hand-made pasta.
Because of the sea, people can eat excellent fish.
In Romagna there is the most greater concentration of hotels respect the whole rest of Italy; tourists can find promotional offers and good services.
If you talk about Romagna you have to talk about its fun parks, its aquatic parks and its shopping centres.
So… are you still at the computer?? Let’s move and book your holiday in Italy Romagna !!!!
