Food, appetite, and the need for community are prominent themes along with an intimate peak into the complicated dynamics that exist between Italian men and their mothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week&#8217;s menu highlights some of the food served in the movie as well as other dishes that could be found at a mid-August lunch whether for a vacation picnic or at home for a staycation lunch with Mamma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iricchifoodclub.com\/blogs\/news\/week-176-menu-august-1-6-2023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SEE MENU<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ferragosto: August Staycation with Mamma For the two weeks before and after the holiday of Ferragosto on August 15th, it seems as if all of &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4091,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4089","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-specials","latest_post"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4089","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4089"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4089\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4092,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4089\/revisions\/4092"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4091"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4089"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4089"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iricchidc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
