    If I die tomorrow, I want Marco to be at my funeral and say with his whispering voice: He didn't die, he decided to stop existing. It was his choice.

    He’s literally the only person alive who can make sweating onions and garlic sound like a dissertation on how I should be living my life. And I love it.
  • @megacheese
    Being taught by Marco in the safety of my own home is literally the pinnacle of content, this is an experience you couldn't even pay for ten years ago.

    5:50 love how they deemed it necessary to caption “HE GRUNTS” 😂
  • @Gueeome
    I put my finger in the sauce just like him, I now have a 2nd degree burn... It was my choice to cry !
  • @markoragnos6757
    Michelin star chef tells you how to conduct yourself not just in kitchen but in life. Attention to detail and passion. Love Marco.

    His Mother was Italian, but it was her choice really.

    ”When you make the perfect tomato sauce, you want it to taste of tomatoes” Best I have hear this year!
  • @magst123
    Hope I'll some day be on Marco's level, having made a perfect tomato sauce without a single stain on my white t-shirt.
  • "Fresh tomatoes are only perfect for two months out of the year. To make great tomato sauce, then, what you need to do is just forget about all that and use half canned tomatoes, half fresh tomatoes harvested at any time of the year." 30 seconds in and he's already making zero sense. I love this man.
