Tuscan Holiday

Olive oil, pasta, fish and game are the simple local ingredients that are used to create exceptional Tuscan dishes.

The class will be held 4 to 8 p.m. Sept. 18 and costs $60 per person.

Most classes involve hands-on preparation under the direction of a skilled chef and participants have the opportunity to taste dishes that are prepared.
