Thank you so much, Pat and Shino, for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your evening with Laetitia and Lucia and had such a great time exploring Beforte and experiencing the warmth of a Tuscan home. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed making homemade pasta from scratch, helping with the leek and sausage sauce, and discovering some unique vegetable dishes. And we’re especially happy to hear that Lucia’s tiramisu was a highlight! We’ll be sure to share your kind words with both hosts. It sounds like it was a truly memorable evening filled with excellent food and great company.
