Chef Gino D'Acampo begins his second Italian Escape in beautiful Florence. He's on a mission to examine the food that has shaped this Renaissance city. His journey begins as he tackles the famous ‘bistecca alla Fiorentina' - the finest, thickest, juiciest steak in Tuscany. He is excited to grill the colossal cut of beef at a local restaurant and - naturally - has to savour its delicious flavour. Enthused by the mouth-watering steak, Gino shows off his take on this dish - tagliata - sliced T-bone steak with a colourful courgette ribbon and goat's cheese salad. Before leaving the city, Gino encounters a historic speciality - ‘lampredotto'. This popular Florentine street food is made from cow's stomach - but is Gino is game for eating it? Satisfied with Florence's best savoury food, Gino heads to the town of Prato for something sweeter. Here, he meets a pastry chef who thrills Gino with his speciality ‘peaches' - brioche buns with an aromatic, creamy filling. Inspired by his delightful discovery, Gino conjures up his own dessert of apple poached in red wine with amaretti biscuit cream.

Chef Gino D'Acampo continues his Italian Escape in breathtaking Venice. His adventure begins when he is summoned for an appointment with a Venetian Countess. Gino has never met a ‘Contessa' before and although the two of them share a love of food, he remains slightly nervous about the encounter. He is keen to ask the Contessa about a kind of Venetian tapas called ‘cicchetti' – so together they take an enchanting gondola ride to discover the best finger-food in the city. Motivated by the experience, Gino creates his own platter of three different cicchetti on ciabatta, namely courgette fennel and caper, prawns on chilli mayonnaise and breaded cod on lemon mayonnaise. His succulent prawns and cod are bought fresh from the vibrant Rialto market. Eager to explore on his own, Gino then heads out of the city to the nearby island of Burano. Its eye-catching multi-coloured houses make Burano a popular tourist spot, but our chef's not here to see the beautiful sights, he's after one thing - the risotto. In local trattoria, Gino is astounded to witness, and take part in, a highly unusual method of cooking this special rice dish. Back on the rooftops of Venice, Gino rustles up his own creamy risotto with red radicchio, vibrant peas and Italian sausage

Tucked away in one of Bari's medieval side streets, Gino discovers a group of local ladies, who spend their day skillfully and rapidly handcrafting orecchiette - or ‘little ears' - pasta. Gino is keen to learn the ancient technique, but is better at cooking the pasta than shaping it.

Armed with not only the deli's pancetta, but with the luscious cured meat ‘guanciale', he decides to cook his pasta in front of Rome's iconic Colosseum. Keen to explore the outskirts of the city, Gino travels to Ariccia - a town that is passionate about porchetta - slow roasted, moist, boneless pork stuffed with seasoning and rosemary. Naturally, he has to sample this succulent treat, which must traditionally be enjoyed in rustic bread. Gino's final port of call outside the city is a restaurant belonging to Anna Dente, a chef who has been keeping authentic Roman recipes alive for 40 years.
