I watched the Napoli and Tuscany episodes. I like this. Obviously, Anthony Bourdain is a complex act to follow. Tucci is reserved, more conventional - but he's not trying to be the new Bourdain - he's not trying to upstage him. He's his own man. He has his own story. It's not as heavy as a hit as Bourdain, but it has a welcome place in the food travel genre. And in the Covid pandemic environment where so little travel is possible, it's a welcome escape to a happier and more open planet earth.

this dude is a beast - the medley of bistecca fiorentina on his grill looked amazing

I enjoy this one too. He’s laid back and lets the food and people behind them shine.

on the UES the Citarella is on the corner and at one point it had an attached bar/resto on the adjacent side of the corner (under a different name). they had a dollar oysters happy hour every week, which I used to hit up often. one time I actually found a baby pearl inside. not sure what happened to it
