    From market to kitchen to dining table!

    Paddy_B, Apr 2024
    Our leader clearly explained how our day would work when she met us at the appointed place and time, and we set off for the central market. She arranged tastings and conversations with some vendors and shared information about the market, the vendors, and the food. After walking to the school and relaxing for a bit, she put us to work, again with clear instructions. Everyone had such fun, we enjoyed cooking and laughing together. Then we enjoyed the fruits of our labor and toasted to this successful adventure

    Do it yourself and enjoy!

    Our host was very nice and helpful. We had a great tour of the market. We had a great time preparing the food which we later ate (however, there wasn’t quite enough for everyone). The wine was delicious and the hospitality very good.
