One of Bucks County‘s most popular eateries is being featured on a major televisions show, hosted by Andrew Zimmern, one of cooking’s biggest names. Jeff Werner wrote about the restaurant for the Newtown Patch.

Vecchia Osteria by Pasquale, an Italian restaurant located at 20 Richboro Road in Newtown, is being featured on Family Dinner, a Discovery+ show hosted by famed chef Zimmern.

The chef sat down with the Palino family, whose members operate the establishment in a small shopping center.

“They were here for three days,” said Pasquale, the owner of the restaurant. “They cooked with us. They heard our story — who we are. They met our five children who all work with us. It was exciting. The show is going to be like a family dinner — the way we cook, our culture, where we come from — our roots.”

The episode is set to premiere on Dec. 23. It will be available on its parent channel, as well as the Magnolia app.
