What You'll Do

Discover authentic flavors straight from Tuscany.

Indulge in the rustic elegance of Tuscany with this private che experience curated by Chef Shawnie, an esteemed culinary talent. Every course is thoughtfully prepared and served – simply sit down at your table and let the evening unfold.

The table opens with a peppery arugula salad dressed in homemade lemon vinaigrette and shaved Parmigiano Reggiano. The main course features flank steak tagliata, perfectly seared and served with salsa verde and fried capers, alongside a velvety wild mushroom risotto. The evening closes with an affogato – rich espresso poured over vanilla ice cream – a simple, perfect finish to a Tuscan-inspired feast. Book your Italian menu today. 



Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to accompany the menu, and may request pairing recommendations from the chef upon booking.
