Rome v. Carthage - The Second Punic War (Part I) - The Carthaginian Smore
"That’s always the trick with sequels, is how much do you repeat from the first one. Because we all get bummed out when you go see a sequel and it's beat for beat." - Adam McKay
If there is one thing that I can say about the follow-up to the First Punic War, it definitely wasn't a "beat for beat" remake. In fact, you could say that it is even "better" than it's predecessor, from a historical research stance that is.
This time, when exploring the details of Rome v. Carthage II: Electric Bugaloo, Chef Money has opted to intertwine the events with a person who was there for the duration of the conflict, and is one of history's most fascinating figures - Hannibal Barca.
On the dish side of the docket, the Chef is serving up his take on a summer time staple that should appeal to your sweet tooth - a White Chocolate and Blackberry Smore.
Cheers!
