Famous foodie Stanley Tucci is setting off on another trip around Italy in Season 2 of “Tucci in Italy.”
“The Devil Wears Prada 2” star, who is of Italian descent, will “trace the link between Italy’s historical landscape and its culinary traditions, where the ritual of the shared meal remains the ultimate expression of its people” in the new season, which will bring him to five distinct regions around the Mediterranean country.
“In Italy, food is never just food. It’s memory, identity and, sometimes, a full-blown argument,” said Tucci in a release annoucing the new season.
