Dream of Italy Season 3: Massimo Bottura and Modena PART 2

Dream of Italy: Episode 305 – Massimo, Modena and Philanthropy

In part 2 of our visit with 3-Michein Star Chef Massimo Bottura in Modena, we explore this charming city and delve into the philanthropic side of Modena and the Botturas. Massimo’s dynamic wife Lara Gilmore introduces host Kathy McCabe and the viewers to Tortellante and Food for Soul (Milan). We can’t visit Modena without learning more about its late opera greats Luciano Pavarotti and Mirella Freni and a visit the theater that is carrying on their legacy in training young opera stars. Modena is truly magical and should be a stop on your next trip to Italy. Look for this episode in January 2024!
