slidergirl Posted September 30, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Get your Italian snacks and aperativos ready!! Rumor is that Stanley will visit Puglia, Sardinia, Liguria and Calabria. When it airs on the 9th may be dependent on your location's CNN timing. Buon Appetito e Buona Visione!!🍷🍕 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisiamc Posted October 5, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I need to watch this. The TV critic in the newspaper did a review of Stanley Tucci’s visit to Venice. He was horrified that Tucci ate, and enjoyed, “shavings of pork fat on toast” aka lardo, and salt cod whizzed up with oil, (baccalà mantecato) heaven on a plate in my opinion. I think it’s a good thing that TV critic isn’t a food critic! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted October 8, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2022 S2 just started in England with the Venice episode! My friends have a house on Mazzorbo and regularly ate at the restaurant featured! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have stopped watching cooking programs, masterchef etc as they always make me want to eat and I put on more weight watching them than I put on during a cruise.🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was gagging because Tucci ate lardo, squid ink and salt cod. He’s a wimpy eater, apparently. I love Stanley Tucci. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a 'chow mein' kind of chinese food person, too. Not adventurous. Gotta say - largo on a nice piece of bread is yummy. i've got my Aperol, prosecco, Calabrian hot chili pepper sauce and Calabrian licorice candies ready! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a grilled cheese sandwich for the dinner. used comtè cheese, balsamic carmelized mushrooms & onions and a smidge of my chili spread/sauce. just the right amount of heat! The candy is looks like a Tic Tac, but is hardshell with strong licorice in it. Have to go out in search of Fregola this week. I wish someplace around here did octopus so I could grab a piece and add it to the fregola. Alas, it'll be shrimp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennybear Posted October 18, 2022 #11 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Finally watched the Calabria episode. We loved beautiful Tropea, missed the red onions but had Tartufo that was invented in nearby Pizzo. Yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slidergirl Posted October 19, 2022 Author #12 Share Posted October 19, 2022 This week is puglia, i believe. Easy food options to make - orichette pasta, broccolini, broccoli rabe, more seafood, puglian focaccia. i'll have to decide and then head to the store! when liguria comes up, i've got my trofie with pesto at the ready. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
