A Day in the Life of a Tripe Expert

Here I am as the interviewer at a culinary festival in Turin, Italy.

My first appearance on national television to talk about tripe.

I'm giving a presentation here, the subject is unique tripe recipes.

This tripe food contest was in Florence and I participated as a judge.

Here I am with the members of the Confrérie de gastronomie normande Tripière d'Or (French Brotherhood of Tripe).

I've written 10 books on tripe from different parts of the world, its history, and recipes.

Here I am as a judge at the European tripe and offal competition in Paris, France.

I participated in a documentary about the Florentine tripe sellers.

This is me signing the official inauguration of an international collection dedicated to tripe and offal at a Vicenza library.

I charmed a girl into marrying me - but she's a vegetarian!

Here I am with the members of the Confraternita dla Tripa 'd Moncalè (Italian Brotherhood of Tripe).

I'm at a book signing here.

Here I am giving a presentation on the history of tripe.

This is another national television appearance, still talking about tripe.

Though I have eaten hundreds of tripe dishes in over a dozen countries, people often ask me which is my favorite, and the answer has never changed - the one my mom makes.
