The stories that Stanley and his team have unearthed will be sure to delight and surprise \u2014 a reminder of just how varied and delicious food in the U.K. truly is.\u201d<\/p>\n
Elias Tanner, SVP of Strategy & Growth at OBB, said, \u201c\u2018Tucci in Italy’\u00a0set the bar for how food storytelling can drive culture, and that’s exactly the kind of work OBB loves to create.
