David Rocco -- Host of David Rocco's Dolce Vita
Love great, fresh, flavor-packed Italian food more than most of your acquaintances? Meet David…
- “I’m not a chef. I’m Italian.” Though not classically-trained, David learned about the beauty and simplicity of food and cooking from his life in Italy and the people he encountered.
- Beware, Italia! “I often say to people who go to Italy for the first time, be careful. It could change your life forever — become your addiction, your love, and the place you’ll want to return to whenever possible.”
- David Rocco’s Dolce Vita - The show. “Most people think it’s the ‘Sweet Life’ meaning fancy expensive dinners and all the fuss. That’s not what I mean. It’s not about perfection. It’s about no stress. I like to start cooking when friends arrive; guests nibble on olives and cheese, dip bread in olive oil, we talk, laugh and cook together. In Dolce Vita – the table is seen as the theme. It’s about being in the moment; breaking down stereotypes on perfection. It’s about opening your house to good friends, having wine, olives, maybe a freshly-made Insalata Caprese salad, assembling a dish, making memories. That’s what ‘La Dolce Vita’ means to me.”
- The Food – Classic Italian, focusing on fresh, seasonal ingredients and techniques that any home chef can master, along with a taste of the Italian lifestyle. The show is shot on location in Florence and the surrounding Tuscan countryside, with episodes in Sicily and the Amalfi coast.
- The Music –David picks the music on the show, which combines his own eclectic tastes for specially-written themes played under the cooking segments to original songs written by musicians who love the spirit of the show and wanted to contribute.
