My first memory of cooking is standing on a box at the kitchen bench, licking the cake batter off the spoon.

I've been hooked ever since. These days I share that with small groups, in a kitchen in Melbourne or at a long table in Chianti.

In Tuscany we cook with local chefs, taste wine in the cellars it was made in, wander the markets and eat very well. I look after every detail, so all you have to do is slow down.

If that sounds like your kind of trip, send me a note.
