Magnifico Curiosity
Christopher Columbus’ landing in the Americas on October 12, 1492 was a watershed moment for European cuisine. The Italian explorer encountered new people, new cultures, new landscapes, and special types of food that he and his crew had never seen before. They couldn’t even fathom the taste of tomatoes or cocoa beans.
There are a million reasons to visit Italy. Those who love beauty loves this country; rich in culture, history, architecture and, of course, nature. Italy has some of the most beautiful cities and beaches in the world. Regardless of whether you like the mountain or the sea, big cities or small villages, you would be remiss not to also pay attention to the culinary and wine adventures Italy has to offer.
Wishing all of our American friends a happy 4th of July celebration! This year, why not spice up the menu with an Italian twist?
If you say Italia, you say amore! Why Italy is number one for love, passion and romance? You could think that is about its extraordinary and millenary culture and history; or its melodious language, sweet like an old song; or the sublime natural sceneries and panoramas, enchanting like a postcard. Well, for us the secret is…food!
