#ha dato l’idea di proporre questa suggestiva realtà. Home Restaurant L’Incontro comes as a result of a lifetime passion for the art of cooking combined with a passion for music.

Home Restaurant L’Incontro è il posto ideale per gli amanti della cucina e, particolarità, anche della musica e del canto. Infatti negli splendidi incontri, oltre che gustare una cucina con la C maiuscola veramente speciale, si potrà ascoltare musica dal vivo o chi vorrà, potrà suonare direttamente sul pianoforte gran coda, cantare o farsi accompagnare in arie liriche dai due pianisti e compositori della famiglia. A fine serata, il cuoco, padrone di casa, potrà sorprendervi cantando qualche aria lirica. L’Incontro è una realtà diversa in una splendida location nelle vicinanze del lago del Maestro Puccini. Amici tra amici da amici: perché cucina, bere e musica creano serate conviviali ed alleggeriscono la vita. Una grandissima passione per la cucina, legata ad un grandissimo amore per la musica, ha dato l’idea di proporre questa suggestiva realtà. La cucina è cucina vera, eccellente: d’autore, e trae tutta la sua vitalità dalla cucina italiana. I vini sono appropriati ed ottimi. La pasta è fatta in casa, ripiena o normale come gli antichi strozzapreti, i prodotti genuini a km zero, la carne ed il pesce di primissima scelta, i dolci fatti in casa. Home Restaurant L’Incontro is the ideal place if you love good food and wine, if you also love music and opera, then it’s perfect. Come and try our excellent dishes and listen to wonderful live music or, if you wish, you can play the grand piano yourself or even sing an opera aria or two accompanied by the two pianists and composers of the family! At the end of your evening, after he has finished preparing your meal, the host may surprise you by singing a couple of opera arias. A unique experience during your stay in Tuscany, our home is just outside Torre del Lago Puccini, not far from the villa where Puccini lived (now a museum) and the lake which so inspired his operas and music. Come and enjoy a relaxing evening in a friendly atmosphere. Home Restaurant L’Incontro comes as a result of a lifetime passion for the art of cooking combined with a passion for music. The food is excellent Italian with wines to match. Pasta is homemade, with filling or plain as, for example, strozzapreti a kind of pasta which dates back to medieval times.

I treated my sister and her family to this marvelous experience with Silvio and his family. They absolutely loved it and said it was their most enjoyable dining so far in Italy. Silvio was great helping to coordinate transportation. He and his family prepared delicious food and my sister loved the music and conversation. My brother-in-law especially liked the opportunity to talk about the area with locals. I was nervous booking this for someone else and have never used BonAppetour so far, but the process was easy and Silvio was a great communicator. Thanks!

Our experience with Silvio and his family far exceeded all of our expectations! The meal, the company and the music were all incredible. Silvio's passion is translated well into his cooking (I'm still thinking about those crepes and veal chops) as well as his singing. His wife, Maria, shared many stories and her broad knowledge of Tuscany, and his children, Betsabea and Elia, entertained us with their masterful talents on the piano. The evening was rounded out with a plethora of perfectly light and flavorful Tuscan desserts and a few arias sung by Silvio - a treat not be missed! It was a privilege to be a guest in Silvio's home and to share in his passion for food, music, Tuscany and family!

We had a really great evening. The food was excellent and host and family were really friendly. The added touch of the live piano music with classical scores and opera arias made the dinner complete. A fantastic experience. Thank-you all! Will come back with friends.
