Josie Ragghinti of La Mia Toscana

When a new restaurant opens in Tucson, that makes news, and this week’s broadcast came to you live from the newest Tucson eatery, La Mia Toscana…and all we can say is “delizioso!” This week’s celebrity co-host, Adam “Tucson Foodie” Lehrman, got things started by sharing some news about his series of Tucson Foodie culinary events. We then sat down with Brian Metzger of Metzger Family Restaurants who introduced us to Gio Taco, his newest concept scheduled to open downtown in November. Alan Rodriguez of Classico Fine Wines walked us through Italian Wines 101, while Josie Ragghinti of La Mia Toscana took us on a virtual tour of Tuscany through her beautiful menu. Chef Giancarlo made lots of new friends at the show when he brought out the salmon risotto, bruschetta, and rigatoni with clams in a saffron butter sauce. Si, per favore!
