Arguably the best part of watching Stanley Tucci traverse Italy via his travel show, now officially with National Geographic’s Tucci in Italy, is getting to explore pockets of Italy that the average person may not know as much about. That was certainly the case with Tucci in Italy episode 3, where he explores the Trento-Aldo Adige region.
As Tucci explains, this region borders Austria and until post-World War I was actually a part of that country. But since then a blend of Italian and Austrian culture have made the region unique. That has included its food, because besides what we learn about each region from the show, the other best part of Tucci in Italy is looking at the various foods with big eyes and wishing you could sample it yourself.
