    Wines for the Feast of the Seven Fishes: 2023! (Italian-American traditions, The Bear, celebrations with family by blood and family by friendship, great seafood wines)

    Wines for the Feast of the Seven Fishes: 2023! (Italian-American traditions, The Bear, celebrations with family by blood and family by friendship, great seafood wines)

    Buon Natale! The Feast of the Seven Fishes is an Italian-American tradition that got an interesting send-up in Season 2 of The Bear. How accurate is the “Fishes” episode of The Bear to our family Christmas Eve seafood feast? Well, let’s just say there are a few similarities and some really important differences. For starters, our family doesn’t throw nearly as many forks as they do in The Bear - but you gotta listen in to learn more! We are revisiting this amazing meal again this year because, although last year we found some great wines to serve, there are lots of different wines that are great pairings with seafood and the Holidays. Of course, all of the wines we selected are Italian, but one of them is a sparkling red wine, and the other is an Italian white wine we are betting you may never have heard of, but is a great option for those of you who love a bigger-bodied Chardonnay, but are looking for something new, and something Italian. Unisciti a noi per questo episodio divertente e festoso! Wines reviewed in this episode: 2022 Caruso & Minini Naturalmente Bio Catarratto, 2021 La Cappuccina Soave, 2019 Pederzana Gibe Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro.

    Guinness Record Holder Panorama Wine Bar, Rising Star Opens a New Restaurant in MD, and A Gamer's Delight & Ice Cream Flight

    Guinness Record Holder Panorama Wine Bar, Rising Star Opens a New Restaurant in MD, and A Gamer's Delight & Ice Cream Flight

    Partners Chris Macguire and Steve Wright Jr. have been friends since they were six years old, and both have a deep love of two things: Gaming and ice cream. In fact, Chris' love of ice cream was so well-known that he received two ice cream makers as a wedding gift. A gift that he and his wife began experimenting in ice cream-making at home. Some time later, Chris' trials and errors yielded braggable versions that others could enjoy too. So when he wanted to change careers and had accrued a good amount of savings, it made sense to combine the two passions. So now, we can enjoy playing classic video games while enjoying every last spoonful of the frozen treats at Tubby Robot in Manayunk.

    The well-known, iconic, Old-City Philadelphia-based Panorama Wine Bar has been delighting visitors for years. Since their opening in 1990, the focus on Italian cuisine and wine has won them awards, and even a place in the Guiness Book of World Records. So, we are more than happy to speak with Panorama's Executive Chef, Anthony DiSabato. Anthony, who grew up and began working inside the kitchens of South Philadelphia joined us to talk with co-host Gene Blum about the love of Italian culture, wine, and what Chef DiSabato's personal touches to the menu options at Panorama Wine Bar!

    Chef Joseph Burton and his wife, Amanda Ngangana, both worked in the hospitality industry, with Chef Burton formerly working at Foreman Wolfe's Johnny's Downstairs, and Giada De Laurentiis' GDL Italian. And after traveling to Bastille, France, they wanted to bring French cuisine to their hometown. So, when the couple decided to open their restaurant, they both had a clear idea as to what the focus would be: Rustic French cuisine. However, the pandemic delayed their ability to open and they considered opening a food truck; fortunately they found a spot that they loved and persistence and perseverance prevailed and the couple opened Rooted Rotisserie in Baltimore, MD.

    This week on Humming Fools, Kyle Stück is joined by Robert Tinnell, an American writer, film director, and producer. Listen as Robert and Kyle discuss their love for rust-belt towns, the creation of the critically acclaimed "Feast of the Seven Fishes," ways fanzines and podcasts can lead to jobs, exactly HOW to "find Merlin," and much, MUCH more!

    As Italian-Americans, one of the things we look forward to the most each Holiday season is the Feast of the Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve. If you have never heard of or been to this celebration, all we can tell you is that you are missing out! The Feast of the Seven Fishes is a raucous party of food, family, fun, and, of course, wine! We’ll tell you how our family celebrates this amazing bash, the types of seafood we eat, and, most importantly, we’ll taste and review three wines that we think will be the perfect fit for this, or any other, Holiday celebration. Naturally, all of the wines are Italian, and because the meal revolves around seafood, all of the wines are white - however, we have some recommendations for white wines that you may not have heard of, but that are fantastic, reasonably priced, and should be easy to find. Wines reviewed in this episode: 2021 Argiolas Costamolino Vermentino, 2021  Umani Ronchi Terre di Chieti Vellodoro Pecorino, and 2021 Zenato Lugana San Benedetto.

    Feast of the Seven Fishes, a Boutique Food-forward Market, and a deep discussion of Beer and Tranquility Brewing

    Feast of the Seven Fishes, a Boutique Food-forward Market, and a deep discussion of Beer and Tranquility Brewing
    Rocco Gallelli who is a friend of the show, culinary genius, and Chef/Owner of Innovative Catering Concepts opened our latest show with a discussion of one of the most celebrated culinary traditions: the Feast of the Seven Fishes. Chef Gallelli joined our co-host Gene Blum to chat about the significance behind the celebratory meal, what would be eaten in the past and why, as well as where the Feast of the Seven Fishes originated. I'm sure that the discussion will pique your interest, not only with the history behind the Feast, but after hearing all the delicious foods that are eaten during the meal--you'll begin to get hungry for more. Which is why we also introduced Chef Joe Muldoon to all of our Food, Farms, & Chefs family. Chef Muldoon joined us from inside his boutique foodie haven, Haddon Culinary. The food-driven market offers a variety of prepared foods as well as numerous products that are locally and globally sourced, bringing you the best foods and culinary delights from all over the world. And rest assured, the boutique store has two locations that offer creative meals made from scratch--with no corners cut when the two chefs/owners designed their menus. I know I'll definitely be in line to pick up one of their devilishly tasty pies, sandwiches, or Revolution Coffee Roasters-based beverages. And speaking of beverages, we wanted you to be in-the-know with exactly what distinguishes the taste of those ice-cold beers we all love so much. So our very own culinary historian, and soon to be brew-master set aside some time to break down the various make-up of every beer-base. That's right--we're talking about beer basics 101. So if you've ever considered yourself a craft beer aficionado or wanted to get into home brewing, Chef Blum is breaking it all down for you and then inviting you to join him at Tranquility Brewing Company. Which if you listen till the very end--you'll learn about every last drop that they're brewing up at the FUGE's Tranquility Brewing! So we hope to see you tune in and indulge in some of the best foodie news (and wish list) around!

    Episode 316: Feast of the Seven Fishes with Michele Scicolone

    Italian cookbooks do not refer to it by name. It's not known by name in Italy. In fact, in the north of Italy it's unheard of, and the Catholic church does not recognize it. So what exactly is the Feast of Seven Fishes and how did it come to be associated with Italian-American Christmas Eve celebrations? Cookbook author Michele Scicolone helps shed some light on the search for the beginnings of this feast which just might be an Italo-American construct.
