Lappetito vien mangiando! Appetite comes while you are eating.Vicky arrives in Tuscany to study the language and culture of Italy, but soon falls in love with charismatic chef Gianfranco and starts to learn the art of Italian cooking in his trattoria. On Sunday nights, after benches are stacked on tables, they explore the countryside by car, passing glassy lakes and ancient hill towns.This colourful and intoxicating gastro-memoir takes you behind the scenes of romantic restaurants and bars in Tuscany, Umbria, Elba and Perugia. Interspersed with recipes, humour and heartbreak, it will leave you entranced and with a hankering for tagliatelle and truffles.

Interesting read. Vicky becomes adept at cooking local Italian food but not so adept at relationships. I enjoyed the descriptions of small village life and fleetingly wished I could spend equal amount of time enjoying the wine, food, scenery and passions of the locals.
