”An expression of passion and enjoyment.” That's how Eating and Waiting to Eat's latest guests, sisters Francesca and Olivia Contini, describe their 93 year(!) old Edinburgh institution: Valvona & Crolla. This stalwart Italian venue on Leith Walk – by far the oldest establishment featured on the show – is a one of a kind four-generation family business; a true gem in the Edinburgh, and Scotland's, food and hospitality scene. Kevin and Carlos chat with Francesca and Olivia about history, family, suppliers, and knowing when to (and when not to) adapt to the times – it's an epic and enjoyable conversation that spans almost 100 years of food related stories and family lore.
