Tante Belle Cose Joins the Family at Red Sauce Studios

Plus live Italy Trip Consultations in New York City

Thank you so much for all the love and attention you have already given to Tante Belle Cose. I am just getting started and am glad to have the support of my friends John Viola and Patrick O’Boyle of the Italian American Podcast.

I’ve been chatting with John and Pat about Tante Belle Cose since last year, and we share a vision to 1) bring more art and culture to English-speaking Italophiles and 2) connect Italians in Italy with people who cherish their Italian heritage worldwide. Together, we can do so much.

In this week’s episode of The Italian American Podcast, I sit down with John and Pat at Red Sauce Studio, on the corner of Mulberry and Grand Street in the heart of Manhattan’s Little Italy. It’s a stunning place filled with history and ephemera, and a store is soon to open on the ground floor of the Italian American Museum. We talk about over-tourism and hidden gems and also reflect on how Italy has changed so you can better plan your trip.

I’m also excited to launch live Trip Consultations in collaboration with Red Sauce Studio. Instead of meeting with me on Zoom, if you’re willing to have your consultation recorded, we’ll do it together in New York, and it will be entirely free.

Interested? Just fill out the form here.

Tomorrow, I head back to the US after a beautiful fall in Naples, Ischia, Cilento, and Rome. I’ll “see you” next week.
