Starting September 20, every Saturday at 5:55 pm on Food Network (channel 33) and streaming on discovery+, viewers are invited into the heart and kitchen of Nonna Lalla, a woman whose life story is told through food. The series is is produced by Al.ta Cucina for Warner Bros. Discovery.
Nonna Lalla brings back the dishes that have marked each stage of her journey — from the simple recipes she learned as a child to the creations that accompanied her as a wife, mother, and grandmother. In her words, “The knowledge of the past flies like a butterfly — and if you’ve forgotten it, Nonna Lalla will remind you.”
Set in the charming village of Palombara Sabina, every episode weaves together memory, flavor, and tradition. A smell, a gesture, or an ingredient becomes the spark that transforms daily life into stories of love and authenticity. From afternoons spent with her own grandmothers, to her first experiments with a rolling pin, to the family lunches that celebrated more than fifty years of marriage, cooking is the thread that binds generations together.
