The Ultimate Foodie Adventure!
01.25.11
Looking for a dream trip for the foodie who has it all? How about a 10-day culinary adventure of a lifetime? Acclaimed chef Mark McDonald of Old Vine Café at the CAMP in Costa Mesa (named 2009’s ‘Best Restaurant in OC’ by OC Weekly), along with master chef John Nocita from the Italian Culinary Institute, are hosting a gastronomic excursion to Italy, where guests will spend 10 days exploring and eating their way through the southern regions of Calabria and Sicily. Activities include: making 50 kinds of pasta alongside chefs from the Italian Culinary Institute, dining in some of the region’s best restaurants, touring wineries and sampling olive oil and cured meats produced on-site at local farms.
“Most, if not all culinary travels to Italy are centered on the region of Tuscany, so we’re really excited to be able to show people a less-discovered region of Italian history, wines and cuisine,” said chef McDonald. “It’s also where I lived to broaden my culinary training, so this trip is nostalgic for me.”
There are only a few spots left for the culinary tour of Southern Italy, which is slated for March 5-14, 2011. 714.655-6142 or splendorsofsouthitaly@yahoo.com.Website:
