On the menu: fried rabbit and ricotta pie for the first time in Malta, the meditation of shelling broad beans with Nanna, making ricotta with sea water, and waking up to the smell of Mum's French Onion Soup on the weekend. Finished off with the simplest and most delicious of pastas in Italy. 

Sides include: how a Boticelli print embedded her love of Italy from a young age, a love letter to Malta, meeting husband Nori, and the joys of the Maltese club.

Guy. IYKYK.

Head back to November 2022 when Savva chatted with his magnificent high-school friend Natalie Imbruglia.
