I’m joined by Robert Allegrini, President and CEO of the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF). With a dedication to promoting Italian heritage, Robert shares how his roots shaped his passion for authentic Italian cuisine. We discuss the evolving perception of Italian food in America, the role of NIAF in preserving culinary traditions, and the importance of educating future generations. From global influences to national initiatives, this conversation is a deep dive into food, culture, and identity.
