Emiko Davies was raised in an international household
with a Japanese mother and an Australian father, and spent her
childhood and adolescence between Australia and China. So it was
inevitable that she found herself halfway around the world later in
life, in the US for a Fine Arts degree that led her to Florence,
Italy, as a twenty-year-old. She fell in love with Florence
instantly and returned a few years later to study art restoration
and photography, and soak in the Florentine lifestyle (learning
Italian along the way). But then she met her sommelier husband,
Marco, and that year turned into sixteen (and counting). They live
in Florence with their two daughters.
Emiko has previously authored three cookbooks: Florentine (2016),
Acquacotta (2017), and Tortellini at Midnight (2019). She continues
to write about regional Italian food and travel on her blog, as
well as for publications such as Gourmet Traveller, Conde Nast
Traveller, Food52, and Italian newspaper, Corriere della Sera.
