  1. As Italian I prefer any European food than Italian American food, cause Italian American food is tacky and vulgar! Nothing to do with the real Italian food!

  2. If you watched Milan when they were lifting Champions Leagues and now you're not watching them anymore I have a news for you: you were a gloryhunter not a fan with a true passion towards your team 🤷🏻‍♂️

  3. I saw a YouTube r going to Italy restaurants and they didn't live up to the quality maybe food in United States is better and they over charge

  4. Sorry, this is my third comment under this video, but a lot has been said. Regarding his “issue” with Italian restaurants in the US, which he thinks shouldn’t be called Italian-American, I’d say it happens with all cuisines in the US (Chinese, Mexican, Indian, etc.); everything is adapted to American tastes.

  5. Nicolas is a nice guy and he is doing a good thing promoting Italian culture, same with the Sabino and Rocco! 👏🏻 ❤
