So enjoyable. The chapters are interspersed with recipes allied to his texts but done in an easy, fun way which you can decide to use or not! You feel like you are chatting over a bowl of pasta. The fact that Tucchi currently has his programme running on Bbc2 helps the reader understand his passion for cooking, (and eating), although I've no idea how he stays so slim with in particular, the Italian cuisine!

Loved this well written book about Tucci's Italian roots and families: both English and Italian. You finish feeling part of the family although slightly hungrier. This story got my juices flowing. Funny amusing seriously loves his food and family.
