A culinary adventure with recipes
This amazing three-month culinary adventure unfolds in one of Italy's top cooking schools, the Italian Culinary Institute in Calabria, Italy. Situated amid natural beauty and cultural richness, author/chef Gary J. Mihalik created a series of transportive daily journal entries coupled with scores of amazing recipes and beautiful photos. Each engaging "dispatch" is paired with five or six related recipes specially chosen to enlighten and delight. All were selected from the hundreds of dishes that the author and his classmates made and tasted throughout the course.
Gary J. Mihalik started creating fine food decades ago, refining his skills while studying in the Masters course at the Istituto Culinario Italiano in Italy. His first book, the definitive Mastering Artisan Italian Gelato, was published in 2023.

"Author Gary Mihalik transports the reader to a remote culinary center nestled in a picturesque mountainside in Calabria run by a charismatic and talented chef. By vividly sharing his experiences, Dispatches from Calabria beautifully captures the magic that John Nocita has created for his students at the Italian Culinary Institute. This book is packed full of recipes, strongly influenced by Gary's time in Calabria and honed in his home kitchen, that illustrate his passion for food. - Dr. Bill Schindler, author of Eat Like a Human: Nourishing Foods and Ancient Ways of Cooking to Revolutionize Your Health
