Tonight Gino finally reaches the end of his Adriatic journey and the tip of the heel of Italy's boot. Here in Santa Maria Di Leuca Gino meets Don Gianni who is the priest of Italy's most southerly church- and after a tour of this abbey Gino cooks a saffron and chicken risotto for Don Gianni and some of the nuns who work here. Leuca is also famous for its enormous waterfall- built by Mussolini it is only switched on on special occasions- and Gino gets the chance to switch it on! Finally he heads out by boat to see the end of Italy from the water- this is where the Adriatic sea ends and the Ionian begins. For his last dish of the series Gino cooks locally caught swordfish with rosemary sauteed potatoes and tangy gremolata.
