Hello Italophiles! How are you easing into November? Is Daylight Savings Time causing a major bummer or letting your morning nature shine?  Whether you read this curled up at night, or first thing to start your morning, this the Italian media this week that has caught our eye.

Darker days have you snuggling up with the TV? Here is the definitive guide on where and how to stream Italian movies.

“Olive Oil is Back” says the Los Angeles Times. After the blight last year, chefs are celebrating as they get access to some of the finest fresh pressed oils.

Now in the Via Umbria test kitchen: truffled deviled eggs (with EVOO, not mayo). We went there. Coming soon to #spritzoclock in Georgetown.

Sagrantino has been called “Rebellion in a Glass.” We like that idea. The Globe and Mail says that Umbria

…has an unusual red wine called Sagrantino, which coincidentally drifted into the Italian-wine cognoscenti’s radar space around the time Umbria started becoming cool. There’s something wonderfully rebellious about sagrantino, an aggressively tannic, astringent grape that seems like it’s flipping its middle finger at today’s ocean of smooth, mass-appeal reds.

Did you know that Simone and Ombretta are coming for our grand opening? We are making this pizza over the weekend to celebrate a little in advance.

Have a wonderful weekend!
