"In addition to the food, family moments and laughs our audience loves, this series celebrates the local ingredients, culture and culinary specialties of each city."

In the premiere episode, Debi and Gabriele rent an RV and head to the Grand Canyon with their family, taking pit stops on the way at The Farm at Agritopia to pick fresh ingredients and play with the pigs and chickens; eat with the locals at Liberty Market and fill up at one of the oldest gas stations in the area. When they arrive at the Grand Canyon, they take in the incredible view and prepare a delicious meal in the great outdoors. Upcoming destinations include Seattle; San Francisco; Portland, Maine; Cape Cod, Massachusetts; Detroit and Austin.

Debi Mazar and Gabriele Corcos are authors of the best-selling cookbook "Extra Virgin: Recipes and Love From Our Tuscan Kitchen" (Clarkson Potter) and own The Tuscan Gun, an eatery and shop in Brooklyn, New York. Debi Mazar is an acclaimed actress who made her feature film debut in Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas.

Since getting married and becoming a mother to her two daughters, Debi's passion for food and cooking has grown even further. Born in Florence, Italy, Gabriele Corcos was raised in the Olive Country of Fiesole. His grandmother and mother taught him everything he knows about Tuscan food and traditional farmers' cuisine. Gabriele has an insatiable fascination with food, a love for organic ingredients and foremost a determination to feed his wife and children in the healthiest and most natural way he knows... the Tuscan Way. After living in Los Angeles for several years, Debi and Gabriele moved to Brooklyn, New York to raise their children.
