In anticipation of our Tuscany dinner & wine tasting (tonight, Aug. 27), here are pictures from our trip to Italy last year.

We stayed in Olivello di Murlo. Can you see the chickens and potted herbs? Italy is all about really fresh food.

This is the courtyard behind the farmhouse:

This was the dining area at the farmhouse:

Shopping in Italian markets — gorgeous, isn’t it?

The countryside was beautiful:

The architecture was beautiful:

Even technology can’t ruin the view. (How many satellite dishes do you see?):

Heck, even the laundry was picture-worthy!

Have you been to Italy? Many of our guests tell us that our handmade pizza — made with imported Italian water — tastes just like they remember pizza from Italy. And they say they haven’t had gelato as good as ours since they visited Italy. That’s exactly what we strive to bring to Atlanta! Come try both our pizza and gelato, and let us know what you think!
