not as doughy it’s better than that one
I think the mozzu is like really fresh
[Music]
it’s so soft and you just want to give
it a
[Music]
hug we are in Sienna today we came here
after the winery kind of pulled an
audible we weren’t planning on coming
here so so spontaneity is at an alltime
high in Italy yeah it’s a very cute
little town tonight we’re eating at
oyera Nona Gina and apparently the Nona
is here cooking we heard this is amazing
and yeah we’re going to have some great
food it’s like eating at Grandma’s house
[Music]
yes the menu is all in Italian and
[Music]
handwritten our food came fast last we
have a ton of pasta oh and one more oh
wow it looks great okay look at our
table we have literally everything we
have carbonara we have the ratoni we
have a Bara with anovi oh my what is
that noi that they’re known for cheesy
eggplant yep look at that and this meat
sauce that was
[Music]
MH we hear this Noki is incredible it’s
like a creamy pistachio sauce they’re
filled with cheese
cheers it’s kind of funky yeah yum mhm
this is a traditional tusin dish it’s
this stewed
beef so tender it falls right
off that’s really good that’s like oh
yeah yeah we just finished dinner and
it’s probably our favorite meal we’ve
had so far I guess we’ve only been here
for a day and a half but definitely the
strongest me we’ve had so far that’s
fair to say all the pasta was so fresh
it was so affordable for seven of us
with wine tons of pasta Entre I think it
was like
€150 and would have been double that in
New York
or way more way more more Connecticut
yeah but the best one was the PC pasta
with some meat and pesto Yi stuffed with
cheese and with like a pistachio sauce
crey crey SAU creamy pistachio sauce
which I really liked it was definitely
had like a funky cheese taste tral
tuskin dish it was a brazed beef I do
not know the name of it it had like
whole peppercorns kind of like they do
in genov sauce the pastella Gen say the
texture was very similar to like a
brisket yeah highly recommend oyera Nona
Gina you see the Nona you see the whole
family we met her daughter we met her
husband and it was so sweet they’re
adopting us yes ciao for now tell me
your favorite dish my favorite dish was
the the PC it was like a pesto but like
had meat in it I absolutely loved it the
noodles were like so chewy in a good way
and I can answer Julia’s was the fat
noky balls that she was they were little
eggs and I just put them in my mouth as
a whole towards the mic side there
Kidd you been
[Music]
here I’m rich from the UK my father is
from Florence people always ask me but
why are you here I say why wouldn’t I be
my love for food and wine has been ever
since I was a child famous t architect
called Santi dto really more than a
historical landmark this is quite a
significant property to us we are here
right at the top what’s it called down
here the dungeon oh Cana C it’s where
most of the resera comes from so they
built these underground cellers really
to have a stable climate when it comes
to aging wine there are two main factors
the size of the barrel and the age of
the B and it’s all about the influence
onto the wine of storing extra virgin
olive oil okay I say Trad because we
don’t use them anymore it’s actually
illegal to use them bacteria oxygen feel
free to open them up uh they do come
from the 1800s so they are more
historical artifacts than anything this
is like a museum materials that we
proudly produce here again terracotta
marble you will see all over the place

It looks like you enjoyed Tuscan food and wine … or maybe I'm wrong?
Wonderful video. Nice to see Julia in the long videos. She and Carly are like the funny sisters. Great to see the Sister’s mom. The pasta making class was unique. I need to learn how to make it since I just bought a Kitchen Aid mixer.
Wow every food look so delicious 😋
I'm glad you came to my town in the first part of the video! just a quick note: the full name is "Colle di val d'Elsa" (hill in Elsa valley). Elsa is the river that crosses it.
