Are not required outside. And we ll be sticking to the local rules. Napoli is a truly thrilling city. The second you arrive, you re engulfed by a magnificent chaos. And there s no point in fighting it. People here do things their own way. Take the energy of new york, mix in the gritty elegance of new orleans, add 3,000 years of history, and cook it all up in the heat of the world s most famous volcano. That is napoli. I m stanley tucci. I m italian on both sides, and i m traveling across italy to discover how the food in each of this country s 20 regions is as unique as the people and their past. In the south, we are very used to fight. This place may be looked down as the povertystricken underdog of italy. But the people who live in this region have their own way of doing things. For me, this is a philosophy. This is our style, our tradition. They ve given the world its favorite food. Pizza! just don t forget where it was invented. If pizza was going to be born anywhere, it would be h
I ve only been to milan a few times and always in passing. I ve never stayed here long enough to really get a sense of it. The first thing that strikes you about milan is its dynamism. No wonder espresso was invented here. I think i might need a few of these just to keep up with the rhythm of the city, but do the hardworking milanese bring as much to the italian table as they do to the country s economy? i m stanley tucci. I m italian on both sides and i m travelling across italy to discover how the food in each of this country s 20 regions is as unique as the people and their past. That s delicious. Here in milan, the menu is nothing like you expect. Up here in the north, forget about pasta and pizza. Oh my god, that s so beautiful. Perfecto. This is the land of rice and polenta. Polenta in the ancient time, it was like the bread. People from south of italy call us polentoni . Tucci: there isn t even a tomato in sight. This is amazing.

and of course la dolce, vita, the good life. i m stanley tucci, italian on both sides and i m traveling across italy to discover how the food in this country s 20 regions are as unique as their past. the famous ancients of rome once ruled the world. but i m here to discover how it s the food of ordinary romans that has conquered our hearts. but i m going to warn you. if you re on a low carb diet, beware. you re going to see a lot of pasta in this show. i mean like a lot of it, a lot. i ve been visiting rome for decades. its beauty and history still leave my breathless, but sometimes it s difficult to find a good meal if you don t know where to look. rome is situated in a region sometimes overlooked in favor of its grander gastronomic neighbors like tuscany and ubria. but lazio has fed rome for centuries and every part of the sheep and pigs raised here is put to use in kitchens across the city to make deeply flavorsome food. to start my journey i m catching up with my old
