Program Description

Event Details

Beloved grandmother and social media star Grace Geramita (better known as Nonna Gracie) and her grandson Matt Gresia present Sunday Dinner with Nonna Gracie: Traditional Italian Recipes for Gathering and Sharing. They will demonstrate one of their cherished family recipes.

Nonna Gracie grew up in a small town in southern Italy where she learned to cook in the old ways using little more than simple ingredients and patience. At 18, Nonna migrated to the United States, bringing with her a love of cooking inherited from her mother. This love of food and family has helped Nonna continue the Italian tradition of Sunday dinner with her own family.

More than just a cookbook, every recipe inside includes stories of the roots of the recipe and what the dish means to Nonna. You'll learn how to use simple ingredients to create amazing food that your family will love, employing tips and techniques passed down through generations.

The event will include a sample of Nonna Gracie's creation and conclude with a book signing with Elm Street Books.
