The four hour-long episodes, in which the two chefs "immerse themselves in the culinary traditions of Italy, soaking in the history and energy behind some of their favorite locations they have visited through the years, all the while savoring the dishes that continue to make Italy a go-to destination for global cuisine." After watching the whole series, we can confirm there's no shortage of beautiful Italian landscapes, luxurious fresh ingredients, and decadent Italian dishes, leaving us with a major carbonara craving and an itch to travel. You've been warned: do not watch this show on an empty stomach.
The idea for Bobby and Giada in Italy was actually something Bobby Flay reportedly came up with all on his own, born out of his love for all things Italian. According to the Food Network, he relocated to Rome a few years ago, and "he's been dreaming of going back ever since." And Flay knew right off the bat that he wanted Giada de Laurentiis to be a part of it. He explained to People, "We're friends, we obviously both love Italy, and we're both on the same network, so it made perfect sense."
