Hey, welcome to the secret backstage of Kitchen of Italy.

We are waiting right now for our sismetis, guys.

This is going to be our mark right here.

Her friend right here is setting her up to sit down, but then he's going to

leave her, and I'm going to go sit next to her in this seat and cause some

Italian shenanigans. I'm just a normal person. I'm going to dine here with her.

Here we go.

Hello there.

Welcome to Italy.

Oh, hey.

Wow.

Oh, great.

There you are.

Excellent. Enjoy. Let me know if you have any questions, okay?

All right.

Thank you.

Real good.

I'm excited.

Me too. I love food.

Me too.

This is super fun.

Yes. Do you have toasted bread? Is there any warm bread? No, I don't. Not

toasted? No, just regular bread.

All right. Why? You prefer toasted? Well, like a sandwich like that. I'll

the app.

You ever see the Panini app?

No.

Yeah, Panini app.

I just downloaded this. It's pretty cool.

It's like a toaster.

And you don't want to hold it when it gets hot.

And then you just put the bread on top of it.

And a piece of salami.

And we'll put a piece of yellow cheese.

And here we go.

And push it down.

Yeah.

You see that?

Oh, my God. Yeah, a little bit.

And then, yeah.

Yo, what? It hosts it.

Yeah, but it didn't get the other side.

Okay, I'm going to try darker.

That's probably what we'll do. Oh, my God. Oh, yeah, so it can melt.

Oh,

my goodness.

Okay.

Okay. Let's see if it got that.

Yeah, and then... Oh, look, the cheese got melted, too. That's great. Dude,

what?

That is so crazy.

How does that even... You know how, like, when you're working on a laptop

gets really hot, like, on your lap? So it took advantage of that. It's like

batteries get too hot, so we'll make a cooking implement in it. So I'll try

yours. You just... Oh, I got a phone call.

Oh. Ow!

Oh, it's hot.

Just burn my ear. Yeah, yeah. Don't touch that. I'm going to get ice. Just

of ice and then I'll be right back. Sorry. Oh, that is really hot.

Did I burn my... It's a bathroom.

Or ice or something.

Holy crap.

They're really nice here. Yeah, they're going to bring me an ice pack.

Oh, this is so nice.

Yeah, so you probably don't want to try it now, right?

No. Oh, my gosh. And what do they call it? They say cooked with the Carbonaro

effect. Yeah. So it's an Italian app.

Yeah. Have you heard of that before, the Carbonaro Effect?

No, not at all. You haven't? No.

Oh, the Carbonaro Effect is the name of a hidden camera magic TV show.

Interesting. Have you ever heard of that show?

No. Oh, there's a magician. He, like, hides out in public and does magic

to see if people would believe in crazy things.

What? Like a Panini app on your phone. Yeah, right.

I am that guy. Oh, you.

My name, what's your name?

My name's Samantha. Samantha, my name's Michael Carbonaro.

You're on my TV show right now. Oh, my God.

The Carpenter was like, this is a hidden camera show. Look, I've got cameras

hiding behind that ear right there. Oh, my goodness. Cameras hiding right over

there. Oh, it's me. And right on over there, you see that?

I'm up on top.

Yeah, your friend set you up here today. Yeah? Yes, to bring you to sit next to

me. Where did he go with that little thing?

Orlando!

You were awesome.

Do it with nobody.

You were awesome. Thank you for setting her up, man.

All right, yeah, you want to get a photo? There you go.

Yeah, you look good.

All right, let me get one with you guys.

Ow! Sorry, still hot.

Still hot, sorry. Yeah, phone's still hot.

You've eaten here before?

No, this is my first time coming out here. Oh, it's awesome. They hand make

pasta. You can watch them making it all. It's really cool. Yeah, that's why I

was learning all the names here. It's really wild.

But they fit all the stuff variable, especially the dry pastas they have

I think it's a variable kind.

You have the little ridges on it. Yeah, they do.

That makes them like a more variable, put them in a more variable state.

So if you spritz them with like a little salt water, you should be able to. This

is what the guy was showing me over there. Try and pull it.

Yeah.

So you can change it.

Wow. Because the dough is still.

That's pretty cool.

It has salt.

The salt inside of it makes it like, even while it's still, isn't that crazy?

Super neat.

Yeah.

Is that your to -go box?

No. Do you need it? Yeah, I'd love it, thanks.

Yeah. You know what I'll do? I'm going to take one to dry instead.

I come here all the time. Oh, do you? Yeah, they probably think I'm crazy

but, you know, that's why I like, they let you just take stuff, you know?

You know?

They just make the best stuff, can't get it anywhere else.

You give it a little squeeze when you do it, too. And then I turn.

Turn.

And then... Yeah, oh.

Yeah.

Okay, I just... All right.

That's not even... All right, I'm going to sneak this out of here.

Don't tell the guy I did that, okay?

All right, thank you.

Enjoy your food.

Hey, hey, how we doing? All right. Are we ready for some tasting?

That's a big tasting. All right. Wow.

I got frutes de mare for you.

Wow, a full portion. There you are. Thank you. First order of business.

Thanks. Enjoy. My name's Johnny. I'll be around, okay?

Cool. Thanks, Johnny.

All right, let's see what we got.

Oh, yeah.

Not a huge fan of shells.

I'm going to take the shell things out. Oh, yeah.

I know it's authentic, but, you know, I'm not a shell guy.

All right.

Oh, I can hear the shells clicking in there. Look at all that. You got, like,

lot of shells.

What's that? You got a lot. I didn't get it. You didn't get lobster?

Nope. Oh, wow.

I mean, I'm not going to complete.

Oh, yeah, there's two of them. I should probably give you one of those. Let me

see how many I have. Hold on.

Wow. Yeah.

A crab. Yeah, that's nice. A little crab.

I'm going to use my hand, if you don't mind.

It's not like a shell.

I like a lot of... Yeah, I like pizza, like shrimp or something, but not...

Yeah. I would have that.

Yeah, that... All right. Yeah.

That's what I need.

I don't know how they get... A lot of shells, though, not my... Oh, yeah.

How do they even fit in the bowl? I don't know. I think they... Well, you

know... Italian pasta making is kind of a layering technique, so I think they...

Is that a squid?

Yeah. I think so, yeah.

Wow.

Seaweed.

If you want any of this, man, you can have some of that. I'm good.

I feel bad you didn't get anything good.

That's okay.

Yeah.

Did you get any pasta?

It's just layered on. It's like thick underneath the pasta. It's like I got to

dig it up, you know?

Wow.

That's good.

All right.

All right. That's insane.

Yeah, that's a whole octopus there.

Okay.

Okay.

Yeah,

they probably have a... Can I use your plate?

Maybe it'll hold some of the... Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Feel free if you want.

I mean, I don't know how I'm even supposed to eat that.

Wow, nice.

You a shellfish guy?

I like any food that's from the sea.

Anything from the sea? Yeah, pretty much. Dive in, man.

I don't know what you want.

What? You waiting for your girl?

Yeah, it's her thing.

Oh, she stepped out.

Oh, yeah.

Wow. Yeah, the whole lobster tail, huh?

I usually like to shell off of stuff. I'm not like a de -shelling kind of guy.

You know?

He's got to be off the bone?

Yeah. Yeah, it kind of bugs me out eating all the shells and stuff.

Get that out of the way.

Look at this.

So you don't mind me using my hands a little.

Yeah.

There's a whole crab in here.

That's great.

Wow. Yeah.

Oh, that's corn I'll keep.

Yeah. It's just the shell. That was underneath?

Yeah. The shell stuff I don't like. Holy cow. Yeah. I don't mind the seafood

stuff. It's all right.

Yeah. Dude, it's just the.

It's just the.

Squid? Yeah, squid.

I don't mind that stuff.

This is from America, isn't it?

Dude, what?

What?

What? Nobody.

That's me, dude.

That's good.

I just realized that.

What made you realize that?

You look so familiar.

I'm like, there's no way all that stuff's underneath those noodles. That's

pretty cool.

That's cool.

You're good,

man. You're good.

I want to know how you did that right now. You know what it is? It's a

technique. You just got to keep it underneath there.

You can keep a lot of stuff underneath.

Pasta. That's what, you know, Fruit of Del Mar is all about.

That's pretty cool. Yeah.

It's just tons of stuff.

Yeah.

All right. Well, I'm going to go clean up.

You enjoy yours. See what you find.

Appreciate it. Treasures of the ocean.

This process takes nine hours, and then we shoot for 25 minutes, and we try and

get what we can.

Help you look for anything?

Yeah, man, you got it. Got new stuff here and here. These haven't even been,

yeah, new and new.

That's the easiest stuff. I didn't even look through these yet.

So you'll probably get a good price if you find something good before my

comes back.

Yeah. Oh, bonfire, man.

You know this dude?

Bonefire?

Oh man, I was like an Ozzy Osbourne ripoff dude.

And I don't think that's Warp, that might be like the... Yeah, what is that?

What language is that?

Do you know what language that is?

Because if it's the German version, then this is like worth a lot of money if

it's still got all the stuff that like, you feel that in there?

or something? Yeah, they came with like, you know, like special, I don't know,

let's see, is it open? Well, the plastic's open, so I'm opening that.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, he was an Ozzy rip -off, but he had like all these gimmicks. You

know Ozzy Osbourne used to like bite the head off a chicken and stuff? Right,

right, right.

So his whole album thing, here, I'm going to open this very carefully

I'll check it.

His whole thing was just like providing like special collector's editions of all

these versions that they reported in Germany and stuff were little,

Oh, yeah, great.

Oh,

yeah, it came with the poster.

Pretty cool.

Oh, it had all this collector stuff. It's like a roach clip, I guess.

Lighter.

There you go.

That's so gross. What is that? I told you it was an Aussie ripoff. I think

supposed to be like a gummy bat.

What was it there?

Oh, yeah, and a bonfire.

Yeah, not bad, right? Wait, there's one more thing in me.

What is that?

Oh, whoa!

Dude!

Did you see that?

That is... Oh my god, I felt it like nibble my finger.

It's got a jean jacket on.

Oh, yeah, yeah. I think it's like a collector's jacket for it. Is it a

collector's rat, too?

I guess so. I mean, he was a gimmicky guy. But how... This just looks...

you, like, touching it like this? I was squishing it down. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hold on. I got to get my gloss. Will you chill for a second right here? Yeah,

with the wrist.

Yeah, are you okay with him there? I'm good with him. Okay, just one second.

I'll see if Adam's here, man. Dude, that is insane.

You ever feel one of these things at 78?

I mean, like, my boyfriend's friend, he has a record player, and he says, like,

he raves about it. Better sound.

A lot of people believe it's a better sound. I want to see what all the hype

about. Yeah, sure, sure. Let me see if I can find something good.

These would be the more lucrative ones, you know, as far as, like, collector's

items because they're so old. Uh -huh. But those would be.

No, yeah. Here.

Oh.

The lucrative ones. Oh, the lucrative ones. I'm such a ding -dong. Oh, my God.

Yeah, I should not.

Uh -oh.

Oh, my God.

Yeah, they break quickly, easily.

No. That's the thing with these.

Did that happen? Yeah. You play CDs?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.

You know the groove fixer? You can kind of, if a CD skips, kind of repair it.

They got the idea to do that with CDs from 78 because there was a really great

vinyl repair.

Not vinyl. What's this stuff called?

Let's see if you lay them out.

So if something like this were to happen, I can't fix it anymore, right?

Well, no, you can.

This is what I'm saying. If they're close enough to pieces, you get them

Separated enough.

And now spritz it.

And you've got to hold it very still and just rub it.

You know, I've never actually tried that. You see that?

It's actually melted, you know, melted and restored. So it kind of melts it and

grooves it. And the other side, what's that going to look like?

If I got it right through, did it get through?

What I do? What?

Play it like this?

So wait, we've got a jazz singer and, oh, like a march.

Alright.

Listen, here we go.

Oh my gosh.

It's both... You've never had that happen before?

No! Did you hear what that sounded like? Yeah.

This stuff is... Hold on a minute. I gotta... I'm gonna go get my box, okay?

Hang on one second.

It's like the lead.

It looks like they've expanded and it... Oh, are you serious? I am definitely

high on... So

I

don't know anything about plants, but I'm going to pretend that I know all

it. We are doing an overnight at the Garden Conservatory.

Does anybody know what these things are?

Yep, so this is a horticulture hall.

Yeah, they just pulled all the funding from it. Did you hear what happened? No,

what happened? This dude who was doing all of his stuff in here just got fired

yesterday. No.

Yeah. Here, I'll be over here.

Yeah, but I guess he got in trouble. Like, he was bringing stuff in illegally

that, you know. And you're just like, oh.

Because you wouldn't be able to get it as fast as you'd want it if you did all

the paperwork right.

Okay.

This has probably got to be one of the ones I wasn't supposed to have. They

them in these things.

Yeah. Let's see what this one is.

It's always like bizarro Christmas.

Dude, right?

Let's see that.

Whoa, what is that?

I don't know, actually.

The thing looks like it would open and eat.

Yeah. Oh, like a fly trap?

Yeah. No, no. You see, it could be fruit -bearing. This is like a more

protective skin, where like fruit that you eat has soft skin that animals can

rip through. You'd have to crack it open to get that. See, this is soft skin.

This is harder.

Yeah. So, I look like a slime on my orange.

I wonder where that's from.

Wait a minute.

Dude, what?

No, it's like... Dude, that was red before, right? The whole thing was,

was like a thistle -topped...

What in the heck?

What is this thing?

I don't feel like it.

Is there anything about what this plant was?

There is a Cuban

assimilatory per se plant.

Dude, okay, get this.

The plant's intended purpose was to be used as an alternative source for skin

grafts and are extremely rare and can only be viewed at licensed

You have to have a license. You'd have to have a license for it. That's the

reason the guy got booted. Yeah, dude, he probably has because it is.

I'm not touching it.

Dude, that's so wild. That is so weird.

Hey, I didn't know anyone else was still here.

Oh, hey, what's up?

Did you meet? This is David.

Hi, David. Danielle.

Nice to meet you. We're just looking at this weird plant that... Yeah, it

touched. When I touched it to the thing, look what happened to the top.

No, it's red again.

Oh, my God.

Dude! That is so weird.

Was it not red? No, it touched his orange and then it became orange.

Dude, that's what it is. That's the skin graft stuff. Wait, where? The tip of

this. We touched it to... No, don't touch it. Sorry?

It's... It touched the tip of his orange, and then the whole top part

orange. I'm going to go wash my hands. Yeah. Can you lock up? I will lock up.

Thank you. All right. Bye.

Definitely wash your hands. I think the excitement's over on this little thing.

That is kind of amazing.

Yeah. Let's keep it in here.

Yeah, let's do that.

Okay. There you go. That was incredible, though. Yeah. Let this one pop.

I'm stoked on that. That was cool that I just saw that.

Yeah. Dude, what if the banana touched it? It would go yellow, yeah?

Do you want to try it? Yeah.

Duh. All right, do it. Let's do it. Okay. All right.

Did this thing get bigger?

What?

What the heck?

No way.

Oh, my God.

Dude, are you freaking kidding me? I have no idea. Dude, what just happened?

Wow.

Yeah, I hope that Danielle's washing her hands.

Here, we'll just set this up here.

Dude, I can't believe that thing just grew like that.

I don't know.

That's the strangest thing I've ever seen.

Dude, that is definitely why that guy got fired.

Evil mad scientist.

That's what that was. No, that's not like real stuff. It's not mad scientist

stuff. I mean...

Dude, he, he, like, that's a, like a man -made plant here.

Dude, I, dude, what if the thing blows up? Should we leave?

Did you make a noise?

It made a noise.

It definitely made a noise.

It looks like they've expanded, and it's like the wetness that was on the

outside that's, oh.

Holy.

Oh, my God.

Did you make a noise?

It made a noise. It definitely made a noise.

It looks like they've expanded and it's like the wetness that was on the

outside. Holy.

That's homegirl's face.

Are you serious? Dude, does it not look like a face?

I am definitely high on something.

This dude's been messing with some weird stuff, man.

No, I've... Dude, I... This just can't be real.

What else would it be?

Dude, I don't... know maybe like maybe there's a thing in the plant and we're

carbonaro effect that's the only explanation am i right the carbonaro

Awesome. That's amazing.

You don't believe me, do you? I thought, like, there was, like, literally, like,

we had to be hallucinating, because there's no possible way that this is

Well, I'm Danielle.

Whoa, okay.

How are you doing this?
