The northern-Italian city of Turin is known for its postwar success as one of the European epicentres for automobile manufacturing. David spends time with several locals who introduce him to some of the lesser-known dishes, all the while showing him that this cultural hub, turned industrial centre, is now experiencing modern artistic renaissance.
David returns to his beloved Italy, but this time to experience cities he’s never been to. The northern cities of Milan, Verona, Venice, Cinque Terre, Bologna and Italia’s capital Roma act as main characters in this series. Join David as he explores these famous locations in ways that have never been seen before, where the people and their stories run parallel to the art, history, music and food of these great cities. This series captures the way the Italians celebrate life and live their very own Dolce Vita: with good food, humour, passion and spontaneity.
