Floyd on Italy

Floyd cooks a pigeon dish in a busy square, visits Sienna where he cooks a winter dish, and gets to stay in a castle converted to a hotel.

Floyd starts off on the west coast in Marsala, he visits and cooks a pizza from the salt fields south of Trapini, before heading to the island of Maretemo for a festival.

Floyd visits the pre-dawn fish auction in Molfetta and checks out the Romanesque cathedrals and Swabian castles built by Frederick II, the Norman conqueror.

Floyd takes a journey through Cinque Terre, where fishing villages nestle in the seaside cliffs on the Ligurian coast. He also goes to a chocolate factory.

Floyd joins the cheesemaker Gino, whilst he does the rounds of a handful of smallholdings in Marano, and then cooks up marinated wild boar.

Floyd visits Bologna, the capital of Emilia, which is full of beautiful buildings, medieval towers and churches. Then it's onto the home of Parmesan cheese.
