The Cuisine in Italy equals to Art...
Most dishes you can find in a fashionable restaurant are nothing but real masterpieces...Have you never tasted, for example, the world famous ' tagliatelle al tartufo', the ' ragų alla bolognese', the ' melanzane alla parmigiana' or the ' bistecca alla fiorentina', etc., etc., etc....??
You can't leave Florence without having tasted the best Italian flavours...and (for sure!) you can't get back home without knowing how to prepare the Great Classics of Italian Cuisine like: ' Spaghetti aglio olio e peperoncino', ' Lasagne', ' Pasta al pomodoro', ' Insalata Caprese', ' Tiramisų', a good ' Espresso' or the real ' Limoncello'...
Neither do we want to speak about the Fabulous Italian wines like Chianti, Barbera, Lambrusco or about the Italian cocktails made of Martini, Campari, Cinzano, Amaretto di Saronno, etc., etc..
To get a real grasp of Italian culture you must necessarily know the Italian style in preparing and serving food and drink....The schools we introduce to you are the best places to do it...
Enjoy your studies and...
Buon Appetito!

Our project was born on 1980. Just after a master in Philosophy, Moradei Andrea founded in collaboration with other teachers the Italian language and culture centre for foreigners Koinè.
This is the starting date for all our Italian language and culture programs. In 1996 we opened the Enoteca de’ Giraldi, offering a cultural approach to Tuscan wine and food. The Enoteca was from the first moment both a wine restaurant then a point of meeting for people interested in wine tasting, cooking lessons and wine tours.
In 2003 we opened the wine and food services agency Vinarium, with the aim of offering the best of our wine and food culture, and at the same time guaranteeing amusement and professionalism to our clients. Today Vinarium offers guided wine tasting in the best Florentine enotecas, cooking lessons in historical buildings and guided visits to the best Tuscan wine makers.

Judy Witts Francini, is a member of the Italian Personal Chef Association, the International Association of Culinary Professionals, a member of Slow Food International, and a student of cooking for over 30 years.
She's married to a native Florentine, Andrea Francini, whose knowledge of Florence provides Judy with valuable insights. Her blog, Over the Tuscan Stove, features weekly articles for those who want to keep current on Tuscany.
I've made my home in Florence since 1984. I started Divina Cucina (originally Mangia Firenze) in 1988 with a simple aim — to share my knowledge of Italian cuisine and culinary history with fellow food lovers in and around Florence. I've lived in Florence among food experts and foodies, exchanging ideas and recipes, and developed my own style, one that is easy-going and entertaining.
That's the Divina Cucina style!
The Tuscans know how to prepare simple food from quality local ingredients. They make the most of regional and seasonal produce. That's why my classes begin in the Mercato Centrale or other markets where purveyors provide the best from the Tuscan countryside.
Let me show you the secrets of Italian cooking and a way of life that I've come to love. Come and enjoy Tuscany like the Tuscans.

APICIUS reinterprets the concept of hospitality and tourism in the international destination of Florence, where the cityscape is teeming with traditional and contemporary structures sought by people from all over the world
APICIUS firmly believes in the importance of a cultural approach to hospitality by examining the unique context of cities and countries in a global framework. Hospitality should and must be enhanced by the local culture of a city, and our position and interaction with the city of Florence has the goal of culturally educating those who visit through the hospitality industry.
APICIUS seeks to shape students who make dynamic, proactive contributions to the areas of hospitality in Italy during their studies and go on to become excellent professionals with the same impact in future destinations
APICIUS is deeply committed to making a prolific vital impact on the city of Florence not just for its obvious touristic aspects but as a viable city, where city conservation and contemporary implementation complement each other in a delicate balance, through its belief in eco-sustainable methods and didactics.
APICIUS strives to provide its students with an experience that goes beyond the tourist facade of Florence by communicating to them that who we are and what they experience goes beyond cultural stereotypes...
APICIUS believes that each student should go back home with a clear concept of Florence and Italy that includes a profound cultural understanding gained from integration with the city, its population, its art, and its culture. What they receive from the experience is a life changed and newfound understanding and perspectives that they will carry in their hearts for the rest of their lives...
