A lover of cooking and a genuine female chef, with roots in Tuscany, now living in sunny Madrid.

Here you’ll find the fruits of my culinary experiences – from the most amazing to the most dismal – along with cooking tips and debunking of all sorts of culinary myths.

You’ll find my most down-to-earth and unbiased recommendations on the places that have captured my heart and delighted my taste buds.

And foolproof recipes for anyone who wants to cook a special dinner but doesn’t know where to start.

Over the years, I’ve come and gone from the kitchen, and now I don’t want to leave it anymore.

And this is my Manifesto Culinario.
