— Your Tuscan Women Cook Team

Buon Compleanno!

Auguri Per Due!

Ristorante 13 Gobbi in Montefollonico embodies everything our guests love about the Tuscan Women Cook culinary experience. Its historic building is a centuries-old landmark that we pass daily. It's where we make pasta and dine on their renowned cacio e pepe prepared in a giant wheel of Tuscan pecorino.

Albo and Simonetta Stefanucci and their son Matteo work together as a harmonious team. Moreover, mother and son share a unique and special occasion that brings a double celebration into their family—they share a birthday on September 28. We offer them our heartfelt wishes for happiness, health, and success. We trust it will be a day filled with celebration and the promise of many more shared moments in the years to come. And we'll stop by to help you celebrate!

As Italian as Torta di Mele

Apples are a symbol of long life, a joyous new year ahead, and, in most cultures, they have a reputation for promoting good health. For Simonetta and Matteo's birthdays, we offer this cake that highlights apples.

Just as families in the United States make apple pie in the fall, Tuscan families make torta di mele, apple cake. It is a traditional baking-season dessert. Italy is the sixth largest producer of apples in the world and a major supplier of apples throughout the EU. No wonder that apples are so popular. Click here for recipe.
