With more vaccines in arms and the loosening of mask mandates, outdoor entertaining is booming. If you’re planning to host a post-pandemic get-together with friends or family, adding an Italian flair is always a people-pleaser.

The food TV series Le Petit Tour on MHz Choice showcases the artisanal food products and producers of Italy’s Aosta Valley, which borders France and Switzerland. Watching these food-rich episodes may inspire you to invite friends for aperitivi (drinks) and tagliere (meats and cheeses), an impressive union of pre-dinner cocktails and nibbles.
