Matthew Scialabba and Melissa Pellegrino are husband-and-wife chef-owners of the award-winning Italian restaurant Bufalina, based in their hometown of Guilford, CT. A dynamic duo, they are well-versed in all things Italian. Having lived in Italy for over four years, they have visited all twenty-one regions of the country. Through these travels, they have intimately explored lesser-known pockets of Italian culture, lifestyle, and cuisine. Their two cookbooks, The Italian Farmers' Table and The Southern Italian Farmers' Table, have been reviewed by NPR, Vanity Fair, and La Cucina Italiana, among others. They are also frequent recipe contributors to Fine Cooking Magazine and La Cucina Italiana.
