Macaroni and Gravy!🍝🇮🇹 #sopranos #shorts

"can I just get some macaroni and gravy?"

In this hilarious and classic scene from The Sopranos, Paulie Walnuts travels to Italy with Tony and the gang and orders "macaroni and gravy" from the waiter, much to the confusion and amusement of the locals. Watch as Paulie struggles to adapt to the Italian cuisine and language, and the gang gets a taste of the culture shock that comes with traveling to a foreign country. This short clip is sure to make you laugh and appreciate the iconic characters and moments from one of the greatest TV shows of all time.

I like how Paulie was being disrespected over in Italy 😂😂😂 they hated this guys guts

[rubenlopez]

They’re making fun of him because he basically went to a fancy steakhouse and was like yeah give me the cheeseburger

[pignapoke]

They were clueless that there was such a culture gap between Italians and Americans of Italian descent. These people thought they were all idiots

[atteovalviniuni]

That German part was a diss against us Italians in Germany 😂😂

[EazzyBeezie]

Love when Pauly gets dissed. He dishes out so much crap for others, fun to see it come back around.😊

I love this episode. In a show that almost encourages the Italian-American stereotype, this episode poked fun at all the “100% Italians” in America and made it clear that there is a stark difference between Italian Americans and native Italians.

Paulie thought they were talking about interior decorators.

I come from a huge Italian family. They’re SO proud of their heritage. It’s their entire identity. None of them have actually been there 🤣.

Got the Italian mobster using his Spanish 😅ha ha ha. Cool scene

[BenRangel]

Was confused until I learned in New Jersey they call tomato sauce "gravy"

[Saved-by-Grace]

As a norwegian, this is how I feel communicating with my family in Iceland

[thereccher]

Italian-American is an Americanized version of a very outdated Italian heritage that no Italian associates with anymore. And most of their "Italianisms" were created by immigrants and changed through generations. The two cultures are worlds aparts now.

I'm a 55-year-old 2nd generation Italian-American and lived with a huge Italian family, both from New York and from Italy. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, and birthdays were easily 100 people gathering at Nana and Papa's house. And never once in my entire life have I heard the word, "gravy", unless you were putting it on biscuits in the morning or your stuffing at Thanksgiving. That is, until I watched The Sopranos in 1999 and fell out of my chair at wtf he was saying.

Americans going to Italy and finding out that they are not actually Italian.

[techrs]

The scene where he says "comandotore bonjornio" outdoor cafe in italy 😅😂😂

[zylonbutler]

Pauly shakin his head in agreement was the best lol

[Pete-rsyz]

Gravy goes with turkey. Paulie is as Italian as dim sum.

[ogichi]

I have never in my life ever heard someone refer to ragu or marinara as gravy

[Lansone]

I'm Italian and I can confirm they were eating "spaghetti al nero di seppia" it's a expensive and delicious dish. By asking to have a simple pasta with tomato sauce brought you just make yourself look like an ignorant person who doesn't know how to appreciate good food, and you know how much we care, an ordinary waiter would have left pissed off and the cook even more so. That's why they told him he was classless.

Another example of Paulie being stabbed in the haaaat.
