By 15 she was an exchange student in Northern Italy, and has spent 25 years immersing herself in the architecture and food of all regions of the mainland and Sicily. Now she leads Portlanders every year to tour and eat the very best of Italy with Right at the Fork Host Chris Angelus' Portland Food Adventures. Here, you'll hear Astrid's story along with her particular Italian favorites.
