Italian Cooking School Comes to Town

Piazza Italia is Beijing’s one and only Italian food-culture experience. This grand, three-floor space houses imported Italian food products from cheese to olive oil, cooking ware, Italian wine, a cooking school, a supermarket, a bar, banquet rooms and an upscale restaurant. Recently, Boscolo Etoile Academy, located on second floor, started their weeknight cooking classes (from 7-9pm) run by Executive Chef Vincenzo Pezzilli. For RMB 500 (classes include all materials and a cooking kit to make the dish again at home), food lovers are taught the fundamentals to Italian cooking, Italian pasty, Italian wine, and much more. Check out their website to find out more or visit Piazza Italia to sign up for classes.
