Italian photographer Gabriele Galimberti knows there’s nothing quite like a grandmother’s home-cooked meal. The smell alone brings about a certain warmth that is like no other. It’s almost as if you’re eating their love, and lots of it. To show everyone that this phenomenon is universal, Galimberti traveled across the world and photographed grandmothers with their specialty dishes. The collection is… well… let’s just say I hope you have a lunch break coming up.
