November: Save The Truffles
I had the most insane week. Quit my job, got whisked away to Italy, started a new job. Bing, bang, boom.
It was the coolest weekend. F had been invited by his client and it was too crazy of an experience to pass up. We packed our bags, set off for the airport at 3:30am, stuffed a Nutella jammed croissant in my face once we landed and found ourselves in the hills of Bari ready for a weekend of education and truffle hunting.
It started with a 10 course meal at Ristorante Da Francesco (the space is older than the United States AND it’s newly michelin appointed, the chef is only 26!) to taste the truffles. Once our fat asses were rolled out of the restaurant, our amazing meal was followed by a lecture at the truffle fair ( to spread awareness on preserving truffles & their habitat).
Full of food, wine, and cheese, we sleepily drove down the winding roads to our adorable AirBnB to indulge in cold showers and no central heating. However, freezing our asses off kept us prime and alert for the next morning when were off to experience a truffle hunt with a tartufaio and his pups.
After the excitement came to an end, we headed back into Milano to see some friends and family (any excuse to stuff my face at Princi). It was an amazing weekend to ring in a new chapter of my life.
