Welcome back to Pizza Quest!

Marco Pacelli is doing something wonderful in Redondo Beach, California at his pasta shop, Fatto a Mano’. After a lifetime of working for Michelin-level fine dining restaurants, he and his wife, Arlene, decided to open a small pasta and Roman-style pizza shop showcasing the foods inspired by Marco’s Aunt Concettina, the woman who shaped his culinary passion during the summers he spent with her as a youth on the Amalfi coast. The rest is history, as customers discovered that they could establish their own vivid taste memories through the amazing homemade pastas, sauces, and pizzas at Fatto a Mano’. Hear in this lively conversation with Peter how Marco shares his culinary vision by connecting his own passion to everyone who comes into his pasta shop by recreating the authentic flavors of his youth and his beloved Aunt Concettina.
