Home Chef

Stefania can create specific seasonal menus; for example, in spring: burrata on a bed of roasted tomato sauce, tagliatelle with asparagus and crispy pancetta, turkey roulade with spinach, ham and cheese, and strawberry tiramisu.
In summer, she uses fresh ingredients: spinach flan with white wine and almond sauce, ravioli with cherry tomatoes and arugula pesto, pork loin with garden vegetables, and limoncello panna cotta.

In autumn: pumpkin velvety cream with crunchy bread, pici with ragu, 'peposo del Brunelleschi' with cannellini beans, and chocolate mousse with red fruits.

Below are just examples, as she always builds the menu together with you based on the number of courses you prefer and any dietary restrictions you may have.
