Classic Cuisines of Italy: the North

Northern Italy

With Barbara Philip MW

Thursday Nov 17 2016

Summary:

Join Barbara Philip MW on a wine lover’s tour of Northern Italian cuisine.

Discover why food and wine that grew up together make such timeless matches and why the table is the center of Italian culture, regardless of the region. The focus will be on ingredients, rather than technique, and how the food is enjoyed both in restaurants and at home.

The tour will start in the northwest, covering Val d’Aosta, Piedmont and Liguria than travel through Lombardy, Trentino Alto Adige, Veneto, Friuli and Emilia-Romagna.
