We met so many wonderful paesani on our trip to Northeast Pennsylvania that we decided to make our way back to the western side of the Keystone State to seek out the Italian side of Pittsburgh, PA!
Join John, Rossella and Pat as they visit the Steel City’s favorite Italian Pastry Shop, one of the nation’s finest museum collections dedicated to the Italian American experience, and get to taste one of the most famous sandwiches on earth with Pittsburgh’s favorite Nonna. Oh, and did we mention Ro's learning to bake a beloved Italian bread at Pittsburgh’s most famous Italian bakery? It’s all this and more as we bring you Greetings From Italian PITTSBURGH!
Presented as a joint project from The Italian American Podcast and The Italian Sons and Daughters of America (ISDA), and in association with Joe Minnella Studios LLC, we present Greetings From Italian America
Join us each month for a fresh look at one of the best parts of this country of ours… the Italian side!
