Transportation and Traditional Foods

Description

Using public transportation in Italy isn't hard, as long as you're equipped with the necessary vocabulary. And what's the best reason for going mobile in the first place? Food, of course! This program introduces key Italian words, phrases, and expressions as it reveals the secrets of handmade pasta, provides guidance in ordering various delicacies, and illustrates how to get around by train and bus. Everything from "How long does it take to get there?" to "When does the last train leave" to "What do you recommend?" is covered, along with helpful depictions of venues selling pizza, salami, seafood, and more. A mechanic-turned-pasta chef is also featured. A BBC Production.
