You’ll be fashinated by the place, the cooking and by the excellent service.

The philosphy is cooking as an art in the true sense of the word, it goes beyond merely preparing a recipe and requie creation, structure and presentation.
The restaurant organizes also short cooking course where you can come and learn the secrets of cooking and the art eating well.

Desco in Lucca
Il “DESCO” in italian it’s a rather elegant, literaty way of saying “table”.
Not table as in four-legged piece of furniture, but rather table as in “the pleasures of the table”. Or put another way, “enogastronomia” and try saying that without salivating.
For the seriously food and wine-addicted, Lucca’s annual celebration of the table returns to the Real Collegio on 14th novembre and then runs every weekend into december. This year we are promised guided tastings, cookery workshops, special guests, musical entertainment, and the active participation of Lucca’s restaurants, (look out for a new guide “I Pellegrini del Gusto”) as well as the usual full range of local produce from arond the region.
