"We're all about connecting everyday people to extraordinary ingredients

from artisan producers across Italy to bring Italian food to your kitchen."

​

It all began with a trip to Tuscany and my discovery of true Italian cooking.

Lounging in the morning sun, sipping smooth local espresso and nibbling crunchy

cantuccini in the piazzas of Lucca and Siena. Exploring all types of silky smooth pasta encased within vibrant sauces, served in the downstairs restaurants 

of Florence and Bologna. Learning how to make authentic pizza dough under the

stars on a traditional olive oil farm near San Gimingnano, the smoke of the

hundred-year old oven forever in my memory.

​​

My travels took me on a journey of all my senses and sparked my passion for bringing

true Italian ingredients home to my own kitchen, inspiring me to experiment with

new recipes and even design some of my own. ​Now, I'm excited to share my love

of these ingredients and their artisan producers, and I hope that they inspire you

in your own "Italian Kitchen". Come down and meet the team in our shop in Castletown

on the Isle of Man or you can order our wonderful range online. You can also join
