184 - Sometimes it's an 'All You Can Eat Sushi' Kind of Christmas + Pavarotti on Ice

A festive holiday recap including a few fun headlines from Italy! We chat about the 3 types of panettone and a man getting stopped the Swiss boarder with 66 panettone! A statue of Pavarotti was frozen into the ice rink in nearby Pesaro making national headlines! Due to illnesses, etc - plans changed for Christmas and we ended up at an all-you-can eat crappy sushi restaurant - was it empty or full?! Also New Year's eve traditions from fireworks to lentils!Thanks for listening and Happy New Year!Best, Ashley & JasonLa Tavola Marche (farm, inn and cooking school) in Le Marche, ITALYhttps://www.latavolamarche.comDetails for the 5 Night Food & Wine Tour/Workshop with 2 Cooking Classes | MAY 25-30, 2026https://www.latavolamarche.com/5-night--made-in-le-marche-food--wine-tour.html#lifeinItaly #podcastfromItaly #italypodcast #expatlife #expatsinItaly #lifeinItaly #Italianfestivals #panettone #Italynews #Italy #travel #expatinItaly #sentiremedia #lemarche #tuscany #christmas #ChristmasinItaly #agriturismo #slowtravelMentioned in this episode:Listen Vivacefollow @VivaceMediaNetwork A life well lived is never finished.
