Bianconi

Dear LA, As I tour the Enoteca Antinori in Bargino, I remember our last night together. Sipping Tignanello surrounded by beautiful people. Together, I felt more alive and infinite than ever. The history of this region is a beautiful reminder that very little matters except good friends, good food and great wine. Baci, Bianconi

Dear LA, I am filled with joy after my journey home! My Nonna's kitchen is the best form of therapy. She loves to tell stories of her first love, and her second, and third....you would love her. Don't worry, I will share her recipes when I return. After my first espresso today, I will take the train to Florence. #lovebianconi

What would you be willing to sacrifice from your past in order to enjoy cacio e pepe in Rome? The "No Reservations," wandering chef has an interesting response to this question.

Meet her at the top of the stairs.

For the hot Italian lover in each of you. Whisper with caution.

Ti adoro I adore you

When life gives you lemons, make limoncello..........we will be back.

Great food found here........

She will whisper sweet nothings in your ear.

She will meet you in the lounge later tonight.
