Added: 02/12/2006

I think that there is hardly a woman today, who is ashamed of not knowing how to cook not a delicious meal, but a simple mushroom soup as well. But there were times, when a woman could not imagine her life of kitchen and cooking experiments and bad taste of her meals considered the worst blemish. Fortunately, nowadays we can afford full ignorance of the culinary basis never cooking at all.

But still if we want to fascinate a man, we resort to this culinary weapon. In order not to misuse it against yourself, here are some tips where can you get important knowledge ? we will speak about culinary tours.
Culinary tours enjoy great popularity among those who don`t want just to do sightseeing in a country , but are eager to penetrate into the very deep of the nation`s culture , which naturally is reflected in the cuisine. Add the valuable experience which is shared with you to comfortable accommodations with picturesque views ? and you will experience culinary tours only.
According to the tourists demands and purposes culinary tours as well as wine ones differ in their levels- some are aimed at highly experienced professionals who are just to improve the knowledge and skills. They are usually interested in a certain trend in cuisine, so if you are not a culinary fan we advise you to begin with easier and more interesting culinary tours, which are designed for everyone. The only peculiarity is that groups must consist of no more than 5 persons (2-4 is an optimal variant).
The International Kitchen is the biggest and world- renown provider of culinary tours of all rates and tastes. Its cooking schools of are located in the most fascinating spots of Italy, France and Spain, such as Ravello, Oasi Olimpia, Rome, Catania and many others.
The card of practically all culinary tours is that they are personally planned, so that your tastes and preferences are the main focus of the tour ? that is why they are so expensive. But really it is worth it! Just imagine- having culinary vacation in Ravello, for example, you will have an opportunity to plunge into the atmosphere of a common Italian hose- the thing is that the chef-cook will invite you into his own house, gloriously situated on a cliff top 350 meters above sea level and adapted to the needs of European tourists. You will start with a visit to a little food shop located in the historic alley of Ravello, strolling through the pedestrian road that crosses the village and will meet the owner of the small shop where you will decide what to buy and cook for your lesson. So no you are relieved from the difficulty of choosing unknown local products. And then, somewhere at 9-10am starts the lesson itself , consisting of cooking the whole set of meals with the hands-on preparation of your lunch, from the starters to the dessert. Classes usually start approximately 10AM-1PM (or afternoon 3PM-6PM can also be requested), followed by the meal you prepared served with wine. Weather permitting, you should serve lunch on the terrace to enjoy the spectacular view of the Mediterranean! Or maybe you want something more dynamic, like Parisian bohemian caf? ? Or Spanish open ?air lunch - surrounded by vegetable gardens, fruit trees, and mot vivid views, with instruction from a charming, English speaking, talented chef, this will be an experience to savor, both literally and figuratively. Add here the personal service of the highest level and domestic warm atmosphere ? we are sure you will remember any of culinary tours with pleasure and joy. So can any other vacation be compared with culinary tours? I think the answer is clear- NO.
