From Verona, With Love

Italy is for lovers

Everything is so much more romantic in Italy. The history, the architecture, the food, the way of life. Added bonus that Shakespeare’s Rome & Juliet takes place in Italy, specifically Verona. Verona has felt like my second home over these past 18 months. Performing a recording breaking 21 sold old shows at the Arena di Verona in one calendar year with Zucchero, I’ve almost spent more time in Verona than Los Angeles. There are so many things I wish I could bring home with me: the cafes, the cobblestone streets, the amorone risotto, the vino, the vegan gelato, it’s such a romantic way of life. The muted reds, yellows and pinks and blues paint the perfect picture of an Italian love story. From daytime gelato eating to nighttime vino sipping, Buckle came on the road with us to the city of love for the perfect day to night Italian street style.

True story…I had to have instruction on how to eat this gelato for the camera. I think we have at least 30 outtakes.

Ahhhh, my favorite newly discovered restaurant in Verona. A wine cellar that has a secret passage to the Arena di Verona and is home to more than 20,000 bottles of wine!
