La Dolce Vita
This episode is all about food as affection, starting with the swoon-worthy Marry Me Chicken in a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce.
Episode 2
Postcards from Italy
Some places leave a mark for Donal, it's Italy, tied to family holidays, his honeymoon, and celebrations with friends. Standing in Florence, those memories come flooding back.

Casa Pasta
Some people have football, others the pub for Donal, it's always been pasta. Surrounded by more shapes than he can name, he's right where he belongs.
Episode 4
Italian American Classics
Nothing beats Italy for food but Donal reckons the Italian-American diners he fell for while living in LA come close.
Episode 5
Live for Lunchtime
Italians are masters of art, music, architecture. But the one that doesn't get enough credit? Lunch. Not a sandwich hunched over your desk, but a proper sit-down affair.
