Synopsis:

Stanley Tucci loves and understands Italy, Italians and their food. This deep rooted passion for the country of his family means that he brings true authenticity to this series. He is as delighted by high end Michelin starred restaurants as he is by family dinners. And as determined to celebrate the truly extraordinary as he is to dig into political controversies. His knowledge and ability to speak to people in their own language means that he’s able to access more nuanced stories and to bring audiences to a more sophisticated understanding of the different regions of the country he loves so much.
