Two Greedy Italians
Liguria and La Bella Figura
S2 E2:
Gennaro and Antonio travel to the mountainous coastal region of Liguria to see if La Bella Figura (making the best of yourself) is still as important as when they left Italy. They find that Portofino has become more about money and superficiality than actual substance, while in the mountains of Liguria, they find people who know how to enjoy life and really live La Bella Figura. Here they learn the art of cooking with fresh, simple ingredients, such as Cucina Bianca, or white cooking, Antonio and Gennaro share their recipes for Triglie alla Genovese, Tortino di Potate e Cavoli and Mandilli di Seta.
