After the leftover dough is fried to make Fritelle with Chocolate Nougat Fondue, Nadia riffs on family dynamics and embodies the rock-star fantasy most parents had to abandon along the way. After the premiere of her "Flavor of the Week" music video, Nadia is joined by her cast of food correspondents - Panos, The Spice Agent and Hans.
