The Fine Black Truffle meets Frescobaldi

On Thursday, February 26th, TUQUAM hosted an evening dedicated to two extraordinary expressions of Italian gastronomic heritage: the Fine Black Truffle of Norcia and the excellences of the Frescobaldi family.

Guided by the stories of Rudi Ceccarello from Diamante Tartufi and Fiorella Lodi for Frescobaldi, guests embarked on a journey through Umbria and Tuscany, discovering products, territories, and traditions that represent the best of Italian food and wine.

Accompanied by the elegant notes of soul music and the cuisine of Chef Pietro De Martino from Ristorante Al Prato, the evening transformed each course into a tale of territory, research, and authenticity.
