Crave Italy | S7 Ep14 Season Finale | Holiday Traditions, Language & Mindfulness

As we close the year and welcome the holiday season, Crave Italy presents the Season 7 finale—an episode filled with gratitude, tradition, and meaningful connection. Hosted by Samantha Ferro, this special episode marks our final gathering before Christmas and the close of an unforgettable season. We are honored to welcome back Viola Buitoni, celebrated chef, educator, and food writer, who prepares festive amaretti with almonds and pistachios, a recipe full of warmth, memory, and the spirit of Christmas. The episode also features L'Angolo della Lingua Italiana with Arianna, celebrating the beauty of the Italian language, followed by a gentle mindfulness meditation with Coach Bruce Kittle—a perfect pause during this busy and reflective season. Season 7 has been a journey of inspiring voices, powerful stories, and deep cultural connections.  We are grateful to our guests, partners, and community for sharing this year with us.  Presented in partnership with: Consulate General of Italy in San Francisco Italian Cultural Institute (IIC) San Francisco Crave Italy Instagram: @crave.show TikTok: @craveitaly Website: craveshow.com Styling: Samantha Ferro styled by Alice Becker – alicebeckerinc.com Special Thanks: Mona Lisa San Francisco – monalisasf.com  🇮🇹 🇺🇸 About Crave Italy Crave Italy is a bilingual platform celebrating Italian language, culture, heritage, and innovation worldwide. ✨ Ci vediamo presto!  Stay tuned for Season 8 coming in 2026.
