It's in the nature of Italians to live life with a positive tone and to celebrate the invitations that come along in life. Italian food is so conducive to all of that. Love from Korea 🇰🇷💕
Woow, I’ m Italian and I can just say thank you! For sharing with everyone such an amazing country that’ s full of great food and even more important for its history, art, literature. So proud and thankful!
I come from an Italian/Italian-American family. Those simple pasta dishes, we have eaten on a weekly basis since my childhood. I love watching the Italy videos because I see all the things my family eats (especially Rome, Tuscany, and Sicily). I didn't realize how much is very specific to Italian culture. When I share food and recipes with friends, they are perplexed (but also in love) which should have given me a realization that the food is not normal for what people are used to here in America, especially in Florida where I live.
OMG! My friend and I went there today based on your recommendation! We scheduled our day around it! Lol. The food was wonderful as was the vino! We met a young man who was celebrating his birthday so we bought him a glass, toasted him and enjoyed his company for an hour or so! Thanks, again! Love your channel. Heading to Florence tomorrow and will get to your recommended restaurant that opens at 11! Can hardly wait to try the pasta and amazing beef dish! 😍
Those simple pasta dishes from the osteria looked delicious. I learned in Italy that a small dish of pasta without tons of sauce all over it is more than sufficient to satisfy. I love it. Side note: An osteria is akin to the English 'tavern' with a little more emphasis on drinking than eating, but it totally depends on the particular establishment. In the early 70's I would go to a local osteria where they would serve a bottle of wine, a plate with a few cheeses, a few slices of salami, some fresh garlic cloves and a chunk of bread. I loved it.
Sienna is SO gorgeous!! It’s like stepping back in time there🥰 I loved that there are NO billboards or advertising there. It’s so chill. I was only there a day and I wish I could’ve stayed a week💗
I'm Italian, I just discover your videos. I'm really happy to see you discover, taste and love our country like most of us do. You male me proud of this! Thanks! I would like to give you one advice: it is much better if you wait at least an hour or two before drinking a bottle of Brunello, after opening it. Cin cin
I am living in Tuscany for almost 15years at montalcino countryside with my family It's a undiscrible chalm life with nature genuine food (olive oil, wine ) just giving you sense of living
Glad you liked "vinsanto". This is a "vino passito" that means: wine made with "dried" grape. When the grape dries, loses water and so the concentration of sugar increases, therefore when the wine is made with this grape the alcool rate increases to at least 15/16% and it is also very sweet. Let's say that it is between a regular wine and a liquor, so it's best to be tasted as a dessert with cantucci, for example. The "vino passito" is common also in other Italian regions.
You were a bit unlucky about the whether, glad you enjoyed my hometown though! Hopefully you'll come visit again! Il Grattacielo is one of our "vinai" (now "osteria"), most of us locals have had launch or dinner there - or even better, a "champion breakfast"! :D Vinsanto and "cantucci" (the typical biscuits you had) are a huge classic!
Thank you for traveling for me. I have enjoyed watching the video and how beautiful Italy is. The food looks delicious. Thank you again. I enjoy all of your videos ❤️
I want to visit Siena NOWWWWW! I feel like their foods have their own unique style and taste (I mean obvi) but it's just so much more apparent in this video. As a foreigner, I don't see these nuances of different Italian cuisines but something about these foods in Siena made me 'connect' with their cuisine. Not sure if I'm connecting for the right reasons but I get a sense of Rustic, Raw (not literally lol), Unapologetic, Simple, Delicious, Unpretentious... love these qualities in foods and cultures. LOL Sabrina 4:14 - "unfortunately it started raining so we're going to head out and get some coffee"
Guys I love you videos . you keep going , walking and eating the best food in most Countries that I have been fortunate enough to visit. Keep it going. Thank you.
Out of curiosity, when going from Rome to Sicily, did you consider going on the Night Train (which goes on a ferry from mainland Italy to Messina) instead of taking a plane? Because of its uniqueness, that would have been a good video to make for your second channel.
First time watching. Said their from Canada. Was waiting to hear the all famous about. He totally said about the Canadian way! My night is complete. Also. This food looks soooooo good!
Italy is a wonderland for everything...sea, mountains, arts, everything. But the food is something impossible to show. You must taste. From the north to the sicily you can have an amazing trip about taste, really different from region to region. And the different types of wine...love it!! I'm italian (but my father came from France) and i love cooking too. You have to try Umbria. Simply delicious
Your content of food evaluation are pretty reasonable. Unlike some others everything’s into their month are delicious regardless or eat very unhealthy foods etc., you both are very cute couple. Enjoy ur videos,keep safe.
Hi , I'm proud that you like my city and our specialities. You ate the steak at Grillo Moro restaurant...basically at half mile from my home. Il Grattacielo.... my friends Matteo , Luca and Lonzi are the owners. Amazing place . Do you know why its name is grattacielo?
Fascinating series and truly loved those series,gonna miss those.Siena is really beautiful city,those panini burgers and double espresso truly amazing,not to mention t-bone steak.
Lovely video, Tuscany is definitely a stunning part of Italy with incredible heritage as well as beautiful nature. But even though its cuisine is great, it's not generally considered "the best" region for food by Italians. Nowadays in Italy, people are much more about appreciating the best of what each different region has to offer, even if they still wave the flag for their own home region as having the "best" food. But if you really ask Italians what region (apart from their own) has the "best" cuisine, the most common answer you'll get isn't Tuscany, it's Emilia-Romagna. It's the home of so many of Italy's most iconic dishes and artisanal food products, so it usually gets the thumbs up for standing out, even if Italians these days don't prefer to rate one region's cuisine over another's. Except for our own of course :) btw, "manzo" is just the Italian word for beef. The variety of cattle used in Tuscany for Bistecca alla Fiorentina is called "chianina" (pronounced Kyah-NEE-nah) cows.
Luke, to "fare la scarpetta" means to make a little shoe for what sauce is left from your pasta dish. You guys like Italy a little too much, don't blame you. ;)
Thank you for the video. The steakhouse was a win for me. The massive steak itself looked absolutely yummy, and the outdoor dining area looked cozy and relaxing.
If you come to Italy in late Spring or Summer you'll definitely find that every restaurant has outdoor dinner places. Very beautiful expecially in the countryside.
Such a great video 👏🏻👏🏻 it's lovely to watch our city from the point of view of a couple of experienced world travellers. I would like to just point out a misconception that is very usual in this kinds of video. Mandolin music is only representative of certain zones of southern Italy, please if you are aiming to play some authentic italian music as background in your videos take this in mind: every region (or sometimes even city) has its typical music, just like food or culture. Just to put this into perspective, playing mandolin while displaying Siena is like playing Sweet Home Alabama in the background while showing the streets of Manhattan. I hope this will enrich your culture and better comprenshion of particularisms that make Italy the country it is.
As someone whose two favorite things are food and Renaissance Era history I wanna go to Tuscany so bad🥺I’ve been to Naples, Pompeii, Rome, Milan, Venice, Genoa, and Verona but have never made it to Tuscany
so much more to Italy than these touristy cities ...if you have a chance you should see Abruzzo , Puglia , le Marche , Calabria ..so much cheaper and just as beautiful
LUKE: A T-Bone steak is called a T-Bone... because it has a bone in it that looks like a T. You had a rib steak... Maybe do a google search to find the differences between them. But all in all looked like a fabulous steak! Glad you enjoyed!
oooof guys! loved it. Alas 2 things! you shoulda gone into that church!!! it’s the most mind blowing experience inside. 2nd - if you go to tuscany, YOU GOTTA BRING BACK SANGIOVESE!! Not pinot noir!! Brunello if poss. or sassicaia… cheers
great video thanks for sharing ,you may like to know that vin santo is made from grapes that are picked and then left dehydrate until like sultanas then pressed , the duomo would have been 4 times bigger but for the plague and manzo means beef in Italian chiania which is local to siena and florence
I explored Siena with a smoke show too. She was an Art History Major. We focussed on priceless art. Buy a 3 euro guide book and learn the "big window" is the Rose Window. Theyll notice you.
You definitely had some great dishes! Btw, the type of beef of the classical florentine steak (which is a type of cut) is not the "manzo beef" (manzo actually means beef in italian), but the Chianina beef (a typical tuscan beef breed with a very fatless texture, to be cooked very raw in order to result in the ultimate tenderness).
It's in the nature of Italians to live life with a positive tone and to celebrate the invitations that come along in life. Italian food is so conducive to all of that. Love from Korea 🇰🇷💕
You know how we say in Italy….”La Dolce Vita” (The sweet life). 😊 Love from Italy ! 🇮🇹 ❤️
Antidepressants exists in Italy too
Don’t believe in what you watch on Tv. Italians are not the people you described
Visited Tuscany in Dec 2019…… made me really appreciate the fresh simple flavours and texture of pasta
Absolutely!
Woow, I’ m Italian and I can just say thank you! For sharing with everyone such an amazing country that’ s full of great food and even more important for its history, art, literature. So proud and thankful!
I would looove to tour Italy and just indulge in food and art history the entire time!
The Italian food we find outside of Italy is just a small portion of what Italy has to offer
Italian food is the same thing in global cuisine, what Dante's Divine Comedy is in Italian poetry. ;)
What a drooling 7th episode night😊😋 The T-bone steak is 🤤, plus nice and amazing place😍 Thanks Luke and Sabrina, keep safe always😇😇
👍🙏
No way could I eat that! Knives need sharping!

Nice vedeo very interisting VIVA Italia
All those dishes you had looks IN-CRE-DIII-BLE!!! Makes me want to jump in the video and eat it. Thanks for up close show!
What a terrific series. I want to visit Italy now to experience the beauty of the land and their food.🤗🤗
Hope you can visit Italy some day Alice!
My absolute favorite town in Italy! Wish I was there.
remember watching a jazz concert in that square one night sitting on a blanket sipping on wine and eating some cheese ...memorable night .
Beautiful vlog, Italia is amazing and italian food is the best
Totally agree!
@@LukeMartin respect bro 👏
. Stuck here in Australia with no chance to travel. You provide the only respite. Thanks!

@Mr.Rupert Angelo Non ho capito cosa vuoi dire, scusa!
They say all good things come to an end

Guys, thank you for sharing in the culinary delights of Siena！ I hope you enjoyed your trip!💖
What a great country, hope you enjoyed your trip!
I lived there for a few years. Loved it.
Out of curiosity, when going from Rome to Sicily, did you consider going on the Night Train (which goes on a ferry from mainland Italy to Messina) instead of taking a plane? Because of its uniqueness, that would have been a good video to make for your second channel.
They are common ugly and not so clean trains . They are not really beautiful that is why 1 hour flight is better than 10 hour train
Such a beautiful part of Italy! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
The food looks so delicious and Siena is so beautiful!
You really did a good job！
謝謝分享, thanks for sharing！👍😄👏
I’ve done that Luke...wiping my bread with the pasta sauce...it’s the best😋nice video guys!

Il Grattacielo.... my friends Matteo , Luca and Lonzi are the owners. Amazing place . Do you know why its name is grattacielo?
Italy is the most beautiful country in the world. Period.

No no. Italians consider better food from South italy
Luke, to "fare la scarpetta" means to make a little shoe for what sauce is left from your pasta dish. You guys like Italy a little too much, don't blame you. ;)
That diner looks incredible, beautiful scenery with delicious food is the perfect combo 😍
Ah! The sun flowers, the presentation of the steak. 😋 mouthwatering. Beautiful city, nice refreshing atmosphere all in all.
Thank you for the video. The steakhouse was a win for me. The massive steak itself looked absolutely yummy, and the outdoor dining area looked cozy and relaxing.

You two are wonderful. I have checked out your videos for Florence and Siena, great ideas for food stops in both videos.
Thank you …. 😁
Thank you guys for the great video. Looking forward to the next!
Excellent 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻
Thank you! You too!
I like your vlogs, you both appear very like normal people no glamour, video shots, keep doing good job.
Haha funny when you said its a type of beef called Manzo beef. manzo means Beef. So you called it Beef beef hahaha.
Great video! :)
You both are doing a great job exploring and sharing amazing street food videos from all over the world

What a way to end the Italy tour with that Steak!
Couldn’t leave without trying it!
Love From Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤💕
Many different cultures from north to south in one country, all very beautiful
As someone whose two favorite things are food and Renaissance Era history I wanna go to Tuscany so bad🥺I’ve been to Naples, Pompeii, Rome, Milan, Venice, Genoa, and Verona but have never made it to Tuscany
if you haven't tried pici (like "peachy") pasta yet, it was my favorite pasta in tuscany. it's a rustic dish, but love the chewy texture.
Now you too are members of the "scarpetta club"!! Always nice exeriences!! Buon viaggio raga!!!
Everything looks delicious. You both are funny. We love wine too🍷😁
Those sandwiches looked amazing guys 😍😍😍
Thanks Angie! They were amazing
Did you ever find out what kind of meat it was in the “shot in the dark” panini?
You are great! Thank you for spreading our culture 🤩🤩🤩
so much more to Italy than these touristy cities ...if you have a chance you should see Abruzzo , Puglia , le Marche , Calabria ..so much cheaper and just as beautiful
What do I have to say? Siena is my home, you' ll be always welcome. Really nice doc. 😀
Sos this looks amazing I miss Italy so much 😭😭😭

I've had rare steaks but wow, that is blue rare. Looks great. I always wanted to get one and will be soon as I'm going to visit Italy soon.
I explored Siena with a smoke show too. She was an Art History Major. We focussed on priceless art.
