Ciao Jovina! I work at Good Tastes of Tuscany– an Italian cooking school based in Florence, Italy. We’re creating an article covering the most influential Italian food blogs and we’d like to ask your permission to mention you.
If you’re okay with that, we would like to find out what your favorite Tuscan dish is.
One more thing: do you have a photo we can use for the article?
Regards,
Alex
