Talking Ciao Tutti

Hello Everyone. My name is Keith. I am a culinary professional who studied in Vancouver, B.C. at Dubrulle Culinary Institute. I learned classic French techniques, but now I'm focusing on Italian by going to the new Slow Food school in Italy next year. Afterwards, I want to return to South Florida and work on private yachts while preparing to open my own authentic Italian osteria. Thats me.

Lightbulb Osteria

I'm not an Italian historian, but an osteria is from an ancient Roman word hosteria. It was a place to go that felt like home with warm surroundings and hearthy comforting food. Today, it is loosely used for any kind of casual restaurant--think Bistro. I hope that answered your question.
