About Me
Hi, I'm Paolo, a sommelier and a huge fan of Italian food and wine.
My passion for wine and Italian cuisine has led me to study, taste, and discover the profound connection between land, products, and people. As a sommelier, I've learned that every wine finds its perfect balance when paired with the right dish, and that behind every pairing lies a story to tell.
Every year, I travel thousands of kilometers by motorcycle, focusing on inland roads and small villages, far from the beaten track, in search of rare products, authentic traditions, and exquisite food and wine.
This spirit of exploration intertwines with my deep passion for the mountains and skiing, as well as for the sea: different environments but equally capable of expressing identity, culture, and flavors, which I experience and celebrate with the same enthusiasm and respect for the land.


Mission
In the region with Italy's greatest gastronomic tradition, Emilia-Romagna Food Tours was founded with a clear mission: to transform every trip into an authentic taste experience.
With my food and wine consulting service via chat, you can enjoy an authentic experience even before you sit down to eat.
By purchasing the package dedicated to the city you'll be visiting, you'll have an hour of private, continuous chat with me, entirely dedicated to guiding you through the local flavors. Not just a list of restaurants found online, but personalized recommendations, explanations, and secrets that only those who truly know the area can share.
During the session, I'll guide you step by step through:
traditional dishes, wines and how to pair them, trattorias, typical products to taste and take home, markets, historic shops, and hidden places that many tourists never discover.
Chat makes the experience dynamic, visual, and interactive. During the hour you spend together, you'll receive:
directions and locations on the map, photos of dishes and typical products, short videos and visual explanations, practical tips and food itineraries, and real-time answers to all your questions.
The consultation will be scheduled based on your availability and costs €49 per 30 minutes.
If you love good food and want to experience Emilia-Romagna in the most authentic way possible, this experience is the perfect starting point!
