Italy Roadtrip: Pescara | Homemade pasta, local pastry, Montepulciano wine & empty beaches (for now)

Brent is in Pescara to sample the food of Abruzzo. That means homemade pasta named after a musical instrument, a pastry filled with jam made from wine grapes, and a meal served on a cutting board. Plus, single origin coffee and traditional fishing platforms.
