Could you explain the expression “un po’ piu’”? Is po’ abbreviation for poco? Thanks – I’m really enjoying the how to italian series!

Maria, that is correct – the expression could have been “un poco piu’”.

I have question about this episode too. Forgive me for the tardiness but I just got an ipod for the first time two months ago and I then just discovered your podcasts. My question is: Is it also necessary to tip your hairstylist the way we do here in the states and if so how much? Or is it included in your bill the way it is at the restaurant.

No in Italy no one tips the hairstylist – it is included in your bill.

Could you explain the phrase ‘a chi tocca’? How is the verb toccare being used here?
