PRACTICAL WORK Is the best way to
emerge oneself in an experience, we explain and
demonstrate how it’s done, but it will be up to our
guests to do the rest.
FAMILIARITY WITH THE PRODUCTS.
As all traditional recipes would want, we try to
stimulate our guests’ SENSITIVITY towards
roughly measuring ingredients, based on intuition and
their own ability to understand the right proportions.
And just like grandma used to do, we try to limit as
much as possible the use of kitchen scales. All this
takes place in a laid back and friendly atmosphere

Main activities ITALIAN AND UMBRIAN TRADITIONS.
We use two types of recipes in our Food
Experience: EXCLUSIVE and
REPRODUCIBLE
THE EXCLUSIVE RECIPES. The
methods, ingredients and utensils used to make
these dishes, means that they can only be
prepared here with us. This is due to the strict
relationship between the ecosystem and age-old
techniques (such as the use of seasonal produce
in the recipes and of the local herbs growing wild
on our Estate).
THE REPRODUCIBLE RECIPES.
This is a selection of well-known dishes found on
the MENU of Italian restaurants. Here we want

simple steps necessary to reproduce these recipes
at home for friends and family. .
