Lmao this happened to me in Naples. In 2011 some friends and I were on a port call and visited Pompei, and afterward we got very lost, wandered through a vineyard, and ended up at a restaurant meant to resemble a Roman bath. When we walked in we were half-drunk, dehydrated, and had no idea where we were. The owner and his daughter sat us at a table and just started bringing us food. We never ordered a thing. We stayed for hours and tried as much of the menu as we could, and the owner was very proud of everything he made us. We also drank our way through their entire wine list.
Molte grazi to that man and his family for taking care of some sailors far from home.
Ain't no damn all you can eat buffet it's a ALL YOU CAN EAT TABLE SERVED and yes, YOU WILL CONSUME everything. Otherwise, mom will be concerned. You don't want mom to be concerned.
This is exactly what it was like when I went to Italy. Especially the “Wassa matta, you no like?” After they tried to feed you your twelfth course of the night 😂
I encountered him while I was a service worker in the early 90s. He was rude to me to the literal point of cruelty.
His friends? They abandoned him while he was passed out sitting upright at a table. He was too fat to fall over. He was just sitting there upright making weird, gurgling, snoring noises.
Now, I am here eating a nice burrito and drinking a milk stout beer, and he is as dead as a hammer.
If you ever want a close equivalent to this in America, go find a good Brazilian steakhouse. Everytime I go to one I think of this joke. They will feed you till you burst, then try and give you some more. They will bring enormous quantities to your table and all you gotta do is flip a medallion green side up.
The first time I went to one, ordered a beer with my meal. Didn't get it. Didn't mind. I merely asked my waiter to take it off the bill. No big deal. The manager comes to the table 5 minutes later and practically begs my forgiveness. He then hands me a card that would get me and my wife 1 free meal each. Any meal. Some of their meals cost over 200 per plate. Needless to say every special occasion or just feeling the mood they got my business.

And still us Italians have percentually less obese people than the Americans
Lmao the subtitle guy really went "???"
I just commented about this guy on another video
RIP. Food was this man’s worst enemy. Swimming would have been his best friend.
??? = pollo valdostano.
He’d be glad to know there are all you can eats in Italy now!!!
Timmy's of the world never stand a chance.
I keep thinking of John Candy looking, listening to this man….
You know what's crazy… After watching Punisher. I literally just noticed he was Bumpo. A character in the Marvel universe.
I hate that this man passed away. He was an awesome comic. Rest easy John!

lol
I miss him. One of the greats
Yes, more John Pinette shorts. He deserves more recognition, one of my favorite comedians of all time and completely clean. Great performer
Ok, I really need to go to Italy now
A true legend.

Person eating stops due to death
Italians: “what’s a matta, you sick?”

Every clip I’ve seen makes it seem like he has one real joke. (Some type of “I’m so fat”) but somehow he spins it into something new and hilarious

This guy is a larger version of the late, Gilbert Gottfried.
Without the annoying high pitch nasal vocals.
I want to hear about the bill lol.
😂that is an Italian grandma, not a restaurant. From Italy I say
All he talks about is food
God, I miss this man!
BTW, The 4th item he listed is Pollo Valdostano. It is a chicken dish with a recipe that comes from the Aosta Valley Region in Italy.
Poor Timmy🤣🤣🤣
White fluffy
Looks like he was eating everything and thats why Timmy died
My favorite of his comedy routines 😂😂😂😂
I have a brother who is kinda skinny, however he always manages to eat more then anyone I know. I’m like “HOW ARE YOU STILL SKINNY?!?!!!?”
There isn't here either as soon as you eat alot they actually tell you to leave and not come back

Italian here, can confirm, especially southern Italy. It really is a fight amongst yourselfs.
"HE'S DEAD!
