THANKS A LOT to all the nice friends that today came to my Italian vegan cooking class at Taste of Okinawa restaurant. It has been a real pleasure meeting you and cooking for you. Ten people - nine ladies and one gentle gentleman - from six different countries! Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria, India, Japan and U.S.A., plus an Italian guy... We made 1 kg of strozzapreti and 1 kg of piadina, then a serious amount of friggione, caponata and peperonata. Dolce and espresso a go-go. Fun and calories.
A special どもありがとうございます to Tomo-san - owner of Taste of Okinawa - and to his gentle sister Rina-san, very helpful both, as usual. And also a special GRAZIE to Luna-san for giving me a new cage for cats TNR, for buying some goods of Europa Vintage Okinawa and for the nice photos, to Fumie-san for her healthy veggies from her farm in Nanjo, to Mirco-san for the precious transport-help, to Payal-san for saying that my food was better than the one she just had in Puglia (I know, it's a lie, but I loved it!) and to Sam-san to say 'mangia! mangia!' in Italian(o). An arrivederci to Rhonda-san, and buona fortuna! for your next adventure (food first) in Napoli.
2nd round:

THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
MUCHISSIMAS GRACIAS.
GRAZIE MILLE
To all the nice people that today came to my vegan ravioli cooking class at Taste of Okinawa!
It has been a great happiness for me to meet new friends and having some calories-fun together.
We made a serious amount of ravioli filled with potatoes, green olives and fried onions. As usual, participants loved piadina, I wish I had had time to make many more for you...
