Languages: English, Italian, French, Spanish, Czech

Interests:

#I believe that food is a universal language

#able to overcome cultural

#ethnical

#political boundaries. For this reason I am curious about any type of cuisine and I love to gather foreign friends around my dining table. And for me the “dining table” is the heart of my home

#a cosy 2-floors villa with a private courtyard a few steps from the magnificent Prague castle. I do my best so that my guests feel like home

#in a totally relaxed and homey environment. My cooking philosophy could be described as a “grandmother´s habit “: trying to cook as much as possible local

#seasonal and fresh

#using the best available ingredients and traditional recipes

#with a touch of innovation and creativity. The menu changes weekly and I am very flexible to meet specific guests´ requests. During the dinners and the cooking classes

#it is very pleasant for me to share the recipes and the origins of the dishes

#why “tiramisu´” dessert (literally “pull-me-up”) is called this way (at least 3 reasons!)

#how to order and drink Italian coffee (never cappuccino after breakfast!)

#and many more anecdotes and stories I experienced during my frequent travels to unusual locations

#the latest being 2 months on the road in Central America

#2 months driving from Prague to Iran

#Iraq and Caucasus

#a journey in Central Asia along Alexander the Great footsteps

#and much more.

I am a 45-years old Italian living in Prague (Czech Republic) since 2006. I learned to cook since child´s age, when my grandparents (who owned a restaurant) taught me the basics of Italian cuisine and the love for taste, tradition and quality. I travelled extensively around the world since I was a teenager, learning as well local recipes and habits, and I choose to settle in Prague: elegant, charming, vibrant, with the most beautiful historic center I have seen in over 80 countries, and magnificent natural outdoors just out of my doorstep to enjoy my hobbies: photography (I am a free-lance photo-journalist), mountain bike and trekking, music and movies. I love to share these beauties with friends and also offer professional tour operator and guide services with customised and exclusive programs, many of which focused on the tasty bohemian cuisine and beer tradition.

Visiting Daniele's place was a wonderful experience - we enjoyed learning how to make delicious pasta and eating an absolutely amazing meal with lots of lovely people. We were only in Prague a short time, and it was a great way to meet new people and learn some new skills. Thank you Daniele for your generosity.

This was an excellence experience and our first Bonappetour experience. The interaction was great, the hosts were amazing, the food fabulous and the wine was above and beyond. IF you are in Prague or visiting Prague you will love this opportunity.

Ho voluto provare BonAppetour a Praga ed ho fatto una scelta che rifarei 100 volte. Mi sono divertita un mondo ed ho conosciuto persone sensazionali provenienti da ogni parte del mondo, con cui il mio ragazzo ed io abbiamo subito stretto amicizia per una serata all'insegna dell'allegria. Il cibo era ottimo, antipasti vari e anche un liquore al cetriolo mai assaggiato davvero gustoso. Poi abbiamo cotto la carne alla brace e assaggiato vari tipi di birra, assaggiato dei peperoncini piccanti assolutamente eccezionali. La compagnia ed il cibo ottimi! A 5 minuti dal centro in taxi.
