Welcome to my online kitchen! Picky Palate is where you’ll find family friendly recipes along with the best Disney eats, tips and copycat recipes! 
The architecture was beautiful!
I want to go there! I want to be in Italy, should have been born there…sigh!
Mushroom hunting — I have read about growing your own on Sunset magazine blog.
Of course, the scenery was outstanding. Maybe I can go some day.
“He’s been working on this for a long time I could tell.”
The stache says it all.
and the fact that you can buy underwear in the open market!
Italy sounds so intriguing!
Awww, the mushroom keepers, LOL! Cute.
My favorite part was when they got out of the car and Dan was talking about how he would shift the gears and hit Rocco in the knees!
I loved seeing the forest where they were hunting the wild mushrooms, too!
I loved the one guy describing Sauro’s mustache, that made me laugh!
It was incredible to see how they go into a forest and just search for mushrooms then gently scrape off the spores to keep the process so natural! Such fun videos!
how much fun would it be to go mushroom hunting..that was my favorite part!
I want to buy expensive underwear in the market 🙂 But I’d rather eat that pasta! Yumo!
My Favorite Part was the drive up through the mountains to get to the mushroom hunters. It was beautiful and I could almost feel the cold with the snow-topped mountains.
This is probably so random. But my favorite part was seeing the different bread in the kitchen at the restaurant. If you blinked you might of missed it…But it made want some good bread.
My favorite part was Italy. I LOVED Italy when I went…and I wish I could go back! Thanks!
The wild mushroom picking was awesome!
i love the mushrooms! i am a huge fungus fan!
Mushroom hunting!!! Rocco!!!
This is the best!!! What a fun trip/amazing opportunity/contest I-so-wanna-win!
How can I express my “want” to win this!!!
Loved Sauro’s mustache haha! I just love seeing Italy! I would love to be there! Again, I would love to go cook and make fresh authentic italian food! Love it!
I liked the part in the beginning where Rocco tells the group that they can buy some underwear. Unexpected and made me laugh.
The mushroom people and Sauro were adorable too.
Thanks for the opportunity.
I can’t believe that Rocco yelling, “Sauro!” worked! And the ‘shache, wow!
The “Mushroom Keepers” were the most adorable couple I’ve ever seen in my life, they looked like they were right out of a fairy tale. And, I totally want to go eat at Aoristo now, what a gorgeous restaurant.
Watching the chefs forage for fresh mushrooms is so funny. It’s great to see just how fresh the food is – and their meal looks delicious! My other favorite part of this is hearing their favorite part of the day 🙂
Oh my gosh! My favorite???
Just seeing the sites of Italy. I have actually been there!! I’m jumping up and down like a crazy woman……
Watching Rocco trying to find Sauro by yelling his name through the streets.
Oooh, my favorite part in this one was when they had to go find Saro and Rocco is just walking through the street yelling SARO! SARO!!!!
Hey, it worked, didn’t it?
I love seeing the streets in Italy, it makes me think I just went on a mini vacation!
I found them looking for the mushrooms to be fascinating! So pretty, in an odd way. 🙂
I loved the “mushroom keepers” and Rocco saying they could only be better in miniature! How awesome!
My favorite part was the pasta machine! Holy smokes. Love it!
The mushroom keepers were so cute. Also enjoyed the mushroom hunting!
I liked the part where they were cooking especially the pasta. Makes me hungry!
I love the part where they were looking for Sauro! That was hilarious. I love Italy and can’t wait to go again 🙂
I’m torn between Sauro’s mustache and the cute mushroom hunters! This must have been an absolute blast for them!
I love mushrooms and loved the mushroom hunting!
I loved when Marisa jammed the pasta machine and walked away and left it for Dan!
I first loved seeing the open air market then how much fun to gather the ingredients for your dish the way they did. Fixing a meal with others like they did would make it so special and then looking at the food…looked so good!
That looks so fun! I love when they are looking for Sauro. They’re all just yelling his name! Haha.
I loved the mushroom picking. That would be so much fun!
