Andrew Cotto, Award-Winning Novelist & Co-Founder, Appetito Magazine

Please join us in welcoming Andrew Cotto, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Appetito
Magazine. Andrew is also an award-winning novelist of seven books, a regular
contributor to the New York Times, and he loves all things Italy, particularly food and
wine. His passion is to write and talk about it, and share his experiences so we can fall
in love with the Italian way of living as he has.

Andrew likes to say that “food is his muse.” He draws a comparison between mental
health and healthy eating, and talks about how Italians instinctively know how to do
that. While he was raised in the states, Andrew fell in love with his ancestral homeland
the first time he visited, and decided to plant his own roots there for a time and learn
all he could about the Italian lifestyle and good health. He’s been a regular on Good
Day New York, and has interviewed some of the top culinary experts in his Appetito
magazine, including Rachael Ray. And now he joins us on our #LittleItalyPodcast,
#LittleItalyOfLAPodcast, and #DeborahKobyltLIVE, to share all he’s learned with us.
And there’s a lot.

Please find our show on all video and audio podcast platforms, and invite your friends,
too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s a pleasure to have you join us today
