Kathy, Berwyn, PA"Chef Jacquie met our group in the heart of the Italian Market. We toured local gems unique to the area. Our tastings varied from delicious cheeses and meats to decadent desserts. She is a wealth of knowledge and her stories are priceless!"
This tour is based on Italian Sunday dinner and traditions like shopping for food to bring to dinner and a passaggiata (walk) after dinner.
