The
success of Tastes of Italy is built on expertise
and local knowledge. Many of our clients call us asking if
something can really be done? What are the chances of? Generally
speaking the answer is yes.
Our
concierge service can provide you with tickets, reservations,
personal shoppers, a luxury yacht for the day, a private chef
or the best seat in the house... Our service does not stop
the moment a client books, it merely begins.
It
would be difficult to list the headaches we have soothed over
the years. Here are a few of our fixes...
Celebrity
pampering?
Asked to sort out a room in Venice at the last minute, we
were able to surprise celebrity client, Steven Berkoff.
"It
is an absolutely astonishing hotel. The room is the like of
which I have never even seen let alone stayed in and the champagne,
most unexpected, delightful. Many thousand thanks."
Stephen Berkoff - Actor, writer, director and film star -

Lost
clarinet?
Within 12 hours we tracked down a precise make and model of
clarinet (Buffet model in B Minor) for a client’s daughter
to give a concert performance in Florence.
“Wow
– you succeeded where the school and concert organiser
failed. What a relief to find the clarinet waiting for us
in Florence.”
Murray Booker – March 2006, Tuscany
Showing
you care?
As a perfect honeymoon gift, we arranged a Riva boat on Lake
Garda with a picnic hamper and champagne on ice.
“I
really wanted to do something special for the couple, and
this was perfect!”
Jacqui Ryan – August 2007
Knocked
"Sideways" by wine?
Asked by Los Angeles cookery school to organise a tasting
of Brunello we went one better with a complimentary tasting
at Brunello producer Casanova di Neri to try the ‘best
in the world’ (Wine Spectator magazine 2007).
“Alright!”
Steve Blake, partner Chez Cherie – November 2007
