Platt Tech Culinary Arts Students and Staff Visit Italy

A group of Platt Tech Culinary Arts students and staff used the time during their spring vacation to jet across the Atlantic to sunny Italy. The group stayed four days in Ravelo as a base of operations. From there they visited the cities of Positano and Amalfi where they swam in the Mediterranean Sea. They also got the chance to see the buried city of Pompeii.

They also participated in two cooking lessons with a highly regarded Italian chef and food historian. On the group's last night in Ravelo, Platt Tech students and staff hosted a dance party with 40 students from the school of tourism of Amalfi . In their final three days, they visited Rome to see all of the famous landmarks such as the Sistine Chapel, St. Peters, the coliseum and much more. The trip was educational but also a lot of fun.
