Calcata Italy - A Quick Peek

michael@discoversoriano.com — Mon, 18 May 2009 23:00:00 +0100

Calcata is an ancient hilltop village that is about 45 minutes from Soriano, near Rome. What makes this village so special is that in the 1930's, it was condemned, and became a ghost town. However, in the 60's hippies and artists began to squat here, and over time it developed into a thriving artist colony of sorts. There are currently about 60 local residents of the village, who have restored it over the years and opened restaurants, cafes, and art galleries.

Bruschetta - The truth and a unique recipe

michael@discoversoriano.com — Mon, 11 May 2009 23:00:00 +0100

It's not really what you think it is...

In the states, when you hear the word 'Bruschetta', you think about toasted Italian bread with a tomato spread. But to think that way would be like thinking the word 'Sandwich' means two pieces of bread with ham, cheese and mayo. It's actually a generic term, and there are all kinds of Bruschetta. [...]

The Life of a Pig Before Prosciutto

michael@discoversoriano.com — Sun, 10 May 2009 23:00:00 +0100

I’m a city boy. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, sheltered from certain realities of life. So when I ate that bacon, I never really considered that a pig grew up, got slaughtered, was cut up and shipped to my local supermarket. To me, the bacon was just bacon. It comes from the supermarket, wrapped in plastic. Of course I knew the process, but I never really had to think of it.

In 1984 I visited Soriano and met Paola. Her parents were ‘play farmers&rs [...]

Pollo Arrosto con Patate

Easily one of the most popular recipes we do in our cooking classes, I thought this would be a great recipe to share on the blog. Don't think this is like any roasted chicken you have had at home. It will certainly spoil you rotten. If you are cooking for others, this never fails to impress!

The FAMILY feeling of our cooking vacations explained

michael@discoversoriano.com — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 23:00:00 +0100

Our future guests often ask me what our tours are going to be like, and I try to explain the feeling of �family�, and how it is so different than anything else out there. Oddly, it is a difficult thing to explain, especially since our future guests are little more than strangers on a phone line at first. But it is without question the number one reason for our success. After all, we get countless of word of mouth bookings. With all that is going on in the current economic meltdown and th [...]

Spoleto, Italy - A Quick Peek

michael@discoversoriano.com — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 23:00:00 +0100

I tried to shoot a good amount of video this year to give me a bunch of material for the blog, so I will have quite a few of the various cities we visited on our tours. Spoleto was a place that we visited fairly often, but I only shot video once while there for a few hours. Unfortunately, it was very early in the season, and I was still getting used to the new camera, so the shaking in this video is pretty obvious. Additionally, they were setting up for their world-famous jazz [...]

Cooking & Touring Tuscany, Umbria & Lazio in 2008, a look back

michael@discoversoriano.com — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 23:00:00 +0100

7 months, 17 tours, 56 cooking classes, 144 guests and over 35,000 miles of Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio are behind us. That was the 2008 season for us at DiscoverSoriano. As with last year, after coming back to the US, I have gone into video mode. Here is the first video I have made since coming back, which essentially sums up the season:

What a wild ride it was. It was a lot of fun, and a lot of work…. but al [...]

Recession-proof your vacation with DiscoverSoriano.com

michael@discoversoriano.com — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 01:00:00 +0100

With so much uncertainty ahead with the economy, skyrocketing fuel prices, and the drastic drop of the Dollar against the Euro over the past couple years; many people have been concerned about planning travel. In fact, during the 2008 season, most of Europe has seen a sharp drop in tourism for these very reasons.

We at DiscoverSoriano haven’t felt the negative impact. To the contrary, while many in the industry have reported a 60% or more decline in business, [...]

Where has the time gone?

michael@discoversoriano.com — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 01:00:00 +0100

So it has been an incredibly busy season for us this year… o the point that we sold out most of the tours this year. Not bad when you hear all over the news how Americans just aren’t travelling to Europe thanks to the weak dollar, right?

Anyhow, the consequence of being so incredibly busy is that I have had absolutely no time to contribute to this blog this season. I’ve hardly even had time to get a night of s [...]

Dances with Mozzarella

michael@discoversoriano.com — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 18:00:00 +0100

For my first video post in a while, I thought I would start with a cool little video compilation made of some of the video I shot during some of the cooking classes we had earlier in the season. This video concentrates on 3 groups we had in May and June of 2008 -- I’m not sure why I didn’t break out the video camera for more groups.

Featured in this video are:

Mary, Erica, Maka, Sue, Terry, Katie, Mary, Mark, Dav [...]

So Goes Our 1st Tour of 2008

michael@discoversoriano.com — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 01:00:00 +0100

{mosimage}16 days to go before I make my trek to Italy for 5 months this year, but our tours have started. Fortunately, so that I could get some last minute work done and finish coaching our son's baseball team, Paola went over ahead of me for our first tour of the year.

Scott & Michelle (from Texas), and Don & MaryAnn (from Washington) are our guests for this week that ends tomorrow. They have chosen to do a somewhat custom itinerary that more or less mi [...]

Let's face it... when I am in the US, this blog runs pretty dry. After all, a blog about Italy doesn't do too well when you are sitting at a computer in Florida. Well, that is soon to change.
