The true American dream is made of a thousand stories about hard-working, committed, honest immigrants who came to the United States for different reasons and with the most diverse backgrounds, but eventually they all ended up being successful entrepreneurs who actually created something magic and wonderful out of nothing.  

This story in particular began in Padova, in Northern Italy, where chef Paola Da Re, her older sisters Luisa and Patrizia, and her brother Carlo used to spend their afternoons helping their mother Maria Giovanna in the kitchen: the kids were all hypnotized, watching her making pasta dough, her movements being so precise that it almost looked like she was dancing.
