By hiring local grandmothers as chefs, Joe makes sure his food has the taste of an authentic home-cooked meal, all while adding warmth and fulfillment to his own life in the process. See Vaughn, Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Brenda Vaccaro, Linda Cardellini, Joe Manganiello, and more in Nonnas on Netflix when it premieres in early May.
