Today’s guest is Germana Valentini, a TV writer and journalist from Rome, specializing in Italian gastronomy, culture, and tourism. Germana has researched Italian-American communities and their culinary traditions, particularly in New York. Her recent book, Veniero, explores the story of Antonio Veniero, who emigrated from Italy in 1885 and founded Veniero’s Bakery in Manhattan’s East Village, now a cultural landmark. The book offers a rich look into Italian-American history, family heritage, and the deep ties between Italy and America.
