Good morning Marco, The evening was wonderful, the food was fantastic. I have a very picky stomach and a lot of foods give me an upset stomach. I can say the feast last night did not. My favorites last night was the bread, soup, and spinach and cheese balls. Hope to see you soon!

Marco hosted a private dinner for 8 guests for me and he cooked a Tuscan Style dinner with paired wines. It was an incredible night! The food, atmosphere and service was just great. This was an experience totally different than going to a restaurant. It felt so personal, like we were home having dinner without worrying about making sure that the guests had enough food or drinks. Everything was taken care for you. Make sure your bring your appetite! Thank you Marco!
