I haven’t got Italian ancestry but my first son does. His Nonno was a lawyer for the mafia, in Rome. He was also thrown in jail during the great temporary corruption purge in the 90s. I was kind of surprised how much the stereotypes from the media rang true in strange ways. But the food. Oh, the food.
lol. They went after them with a vengeance at one tome.
I believe a judge and a few other high ranking officials were killed, perhaps in Sicily
” But the food. Oh, the food.”
have you seen the movie The Big Night? Those dishes which are even unheard of we all had. By the time i got back stateside, I had Italian food withdrawals including chills.
