When Zia Donatella comes to live with the Bertolizzi family,
little do Alfie and his older sister Emilia know what's in
store for them. Zia Dontella is determined to show the kids
how a home-cooked meal is better than even the best take-out
pizza or burrito. And when Zia's plan actually transports
Alfie and Emilia to famous food cities around the world,
they learn first-hand how food can not only take you places
but can also bring you back home. Alfie and Emilia find
themselves transported to Naples, where they meet Marco, a
young Italian boy on a very important mission to shop for
the essential ingredients for his family's entry in the
city's annual pizzafest contest. In their whirlwind search
for the perfect items, Alfie and Emilia not only get a taste
of Italy, but also find themselves refereeing a family feud
between Marco's family and his uncle's family.
