| Fri, 05/13/2011 - 03:12

Gastronomes have a new reason to visit the Umbrian town of Torgiano: Foodie Academy.

Already home to the Wine Museum and the Olive Oil Museum, the ancient town is offering a Food and Art ½ûÂþÌìÌà Experience.

Founded by the International School of ½ûÂþÌìÌà Cuisine, the academy offers seminars and food labs. The foodie professors are celebrated chefs and sommeliers that will take students through a tour of Umbria’s DOC products.

The edible lesson plans are an opportunity for food and wine aficionados to skip guided tours and head straight for the gourmet.
