I can clearly remember that first morning in the little pensione on Via 27 Aprile when I flung open the shutters to discover the most vivid colors, sparkling clean air and brightest sun I had ever seen.<br><br>Tuscany is a region located in central Italy but ask any Tuscan and they will tell you it is the center of the universe. They are exceedingly proud of their heritage and are profoundly connected to their culture, not the least of which is their culinary patrimony.<br><br>Our menu this week will travel through the region, highlighting specialties from its different provinces. We are also introducing a little known light Tuscan red wine, Sabazio, that is best enjoyed lightly chilled, to \u201ctemperature di cantina.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Francis Mayes\u2019 award-winning work, Under the Tuscan Sun, adds to the experience. Open it up, read any passage and you will be transported. Or, for a fun and lighthearted accompaniment, try watching the movie for enticing food scenes and spectacular landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iricchifoodclub.com\/blogs\/news\/week-sixty-eight-july-6-11\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SEE MENU<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Under the Tuscan Sun This year will mark 50 years (yikes!) since I saw the Tuscan sun for the first time.
