Dear students from IT 201 and residents of the Italian house, I hope you had fun and you learned how to impress your friends or family making home made polenta!

See you next block for a new event in the Italian House 🙂

We’re all chocolate experts now…

…Or not.

Anyway, last night’s tasting was great!

Francisco did an amazing job presenting the samples and challenging us to guess their different flavors and aromas. Lidia was by far our best connaisseur 😉

We also had a brief quiz about Italian chocolate and everyone did their best trying to read the questions in perfect Italian. Finally, Mami & Matt were our winners! Congratulations everyone and thanks for coming, alla prossima  😉

 

Cioccolata per tutti!

Real chocolate for real chocolate lovers!

That’s our motto for tomorrow: join us at 8 pm to taste Italian and Ecuadorian chocolate and learn something about your favorite sweet stuff. We’ll have a little quiz to test your knowledge in the field as well… and of course, you’re welcome to taste the samples!

A huge GRAZIE to Francisco for organizing this event and providing the chocolate!!!

Ci vediamo domani, un lunedi’ ‘cioccolatoso’ 😉
