RUclips suggested this video and so glad I clicked and watched!! I am a 65 year old Italian American woman that grew up in an Italian immigrant community in Bristol, R.I. where many of the Italian immigrants including my maternal grandparents came from Manfredonia in the Province of Foggia where they fished for a living which included my family. So much of what you showed in this video brought back many fond memories of my childhood. Most of my family lived in tenement apartments, and when the 1st family members being my great Aunt Carmella and Uncle Arthur were able to purchase a single family home with a basement that had a kitchen the whole family celebrated as that is where most of the family functions would take place from then on especially our Christmas Eve celebration. Coming from a commercial fishing family we had more like the Feast of the Fifty Fishes and most of the fish dishes were cooked in and eaten in Aunt Carmella's basement kitchen and as a result we all smelled like fish for days LOL. Thanks for the memories. 🥰
Relatives not too far from Foggia, I've visited Foggia a couple of times, my relatives from further up north very near Termoli, quiet area, untainted almost, I've visited there 20 times so far
Fantastic stuff. I live in California, but have always had an affinity for Pittsburgh, even though I have never actually visited, dang it! Love the Italian section and I am sure the people are terrific. More Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania. Great episode.
I grew up in Pittsburgh, and every weekend we could we went to the strip. PennMac was always the first stop on our list. Ahhh, the smells! Bread, cheese, meats, olives, pasta, olive oil, we have nothing like this in Arizona. I've flown back to Pgh just to go to the strip.
Love this series!!!! I hope you make more!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹 You have an incredible voice, so talented! And it was so awesome you got to have Sunday dinner with Jimmy & his family!🤩
Congrats to Sal, my favourite Italian, for touring the theaters throughout the US. I love the italian vibes,... like the old grandma´s of my hometone in Austria who kept the families together back in the day,.. good old days,.. sad those women are gone. Keep up your great work, showing a beautiful side of America and making people smile! Cheers
Sal that was stupendous I really enjoyed it thanks for being such a gracious host, Lady is a Tramp “ beautiful arrangement as good as I’ve ever heard I’m 73 now 👏👏👏👍🎶🎶🎶
Yes, there are. Franco Harris of course, and then his Italian Army created by local Italian Americans !! There are a couple of films set in Pittsburgh's Little Italy: Dominick & Eugene starring Ray Liotta and A Wedding For Bella starring Scott Baio. Ciao e buona giornata, amici!
I've dealt with Penn Mac for many years when I ran a pizza shop, they are great people and have the best products. I've never heard of Dom's, even though Ive been in the area forever, and a very good friend lives in Trafford. I will check them out! And i'm the 1k like of this video!! lol
My family and the Wodarek family have been friends for a LONG time. My grandpa and jimmys grandpa served in the army together in Germany!!! Super cool to see Sal hanging out with the whole family! I instantly texted Jim after seeing this!!!
My Nonna still lives on Valera Ave in Carrick…when I say I grew up Italian…this is my Italian. And knowing Jimmy “Big Muscles” is Calabrese…hits home more than seeing Penn Mac cause my family is from Calabria and no one knows what vrascioli is or appreciates it!
Sal just love you since I first saw you on AGT I was in tears when you won and got the golden buzzard from Heidi. I felt you should have won everything and was one of your biggest fans. Your personality and charm just won the nation. we love the old songs of yesteryear that you sing just as well or better than the great legends such as Frank Sinatra and a few others. You should be in Vegas making millions. Get real managers that can put you there. God bless you and I wish you great fortunes. Your friend from upstate NY Michael Torres. We live in Dannemora...
We all making red and grappa in our basement here in Pittsburgh my friend. Every little town has a fruit market that sells grapes or juice in the fall.
Don’t forget the Polish 🤣 yinzz should have stopped in Mancini’s in Mckees Rocks the history is amazing in Pittsburgh that’s why the food is good. Polish-Sicilian American ❤️ both of my parents are from Pittsburgh
Right, a lot of people from the east coast (NYC, Philly, Jersey, etc.) are often shocked when I tell them that Pittsburgh had, and still has, a considerable italian population. I guess they think they all settled on the eastern seaboard, but tons of them went west of the mountains in the early 20th century.
Ok Sal, after watching this and wishing I was closer to that Italian heritage, (I'm on the west coast of Canada), I have one question. How can there possibly be any skinny Italians? When you are surrounded by this much great food, how can anyone not be fat and sassy? 🤣🤣 I just found this series watching one of your interviews. Brilliant idea, and keeps you out there where people can see you. Not to mention we can find some great Italian food!! Diners, Drive-ins and Dives for people that love Italian food and great music!! Thank you!1
it's all about HOW you eat an not necessarily what you eat..Anything in moderation an maybe even a lil more can't really be to bad for you..I was in Pitt for a Steelers game last year, an really wanted to hit their little Italy,which I'm guessing is the strip they're on here? I wasn't able to make it , but you can bet yer ass I'll be back soon..Thanks for the vid an info
Incredibile vedere le famiglie Italiane, nonni zii cugini figli tutti insieme anche in America e così fieri di essere Italiani. Forse sono piu' Italiani loro oggi che noi qui in Italia
You’re a new person now Sal those days of eating like a pyromaniac are behind you but I know you must miss them even if just a little, Jimmy and nonna Rita I’ve seen on Facebook 👏👏👏 fabulous job unbelievable thanks again Sal Valatinetti.
For all Italian American, I'm kinda proud that even after few generations you like to call yourself Italian... Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹.. and let me tell you something, that's a good pizza
I saw your video in Little Italy NY. I’m 80 and my dream to live in Little Italy. If you know of a nice fellow who would like a roommate for company, laughter, let me know.
No Italians other than American Italians act in this manner. These kinds of inflections tones mannerisms are purely American not Italian. It's all so Sporanos...😅😅😅😅😅

I loved everything about this, but my favorite was towards the end with the mandolin and singing speak softly love!!!!
I miss living in Pittsburgh, that city has a sense of community like no other place in the US.

We have are top five with percentage of Italian Americans in the country. This episode was how I grew up. Pittsburgh 🤌🏼🇮🇹🇺🇸

I guess they think they all settled on the eastern seaboard, but tons of them went west of the mountains in the early 20th century.
@@Runescape_GodI met a girl from Sicily who studied in Pittsburgh and she said was surprised that there were 'moltissimi' Italians in Pittsburgh .!😂
@@geoffoakland Love that

Come up one hour north to New Castle if you want real Italian food
Agree!

Incredibile vedere le famiglie Italiane, nonni zii cugini figli tutti insieme anche in America e così fieri di essere Italiani. Forse sono piu' Italiani loro oggi che noi qui in Italia

No Italians other than American Italians act in this manner. These kinds of inflections tones mannerisms are purely American not Italian. It's all so Sporanos...😅😅😅😅😅
