If you ever wondered how would a documentary about Italian food and culture, filmed in Italy, hosted by Stanley Tucci, would look like, then Searching for Italy is exactly that. Effortlessly elegant, patient and hungry Tucci goes from city to city, region to region, with one and one only purpose - to taste what's the greatest in each of them. And it's as mouthwatering as it is interesting, even if you had ticked off some of the previous, similar titles. That being said, "Searching..." falls asleep every now and then and fades into the background - but that only shows the high standards it's being put to. I consider the first season a brilliant start, and an extremely promising appetizer. And I'm ready for more.
