Robert Downey Jr.just got the “Casa Tucci” treatment!
“Dinner @ Casa Tucci — Truly a gem of a fella, &Felicity [Blunt]made me feel like family,” he captioned the post, shouting out Tucci’s wife. “Check out@stanleytucciinSearching for Italy.”
In the video, Downey can be seen dining on the finished product and shaking his head in disbelief, after showing off the inside of Tucci’s kitchen. Looking quite impressed, the movie star gave Tucci a kiss on the cheek as the pair shared a post-meal laugh.
Tucci also posted about the meal, captioning his video: “Dinner for@robertdowneyjr+ 11 more!”
In the clip, theStanley Tucci: Searching for Italyhost gave a rundown of what he had in store for theDolittlestar, listing off the dish’s many ingredients.
As Tucci points out, his cod recipe required capers, fresh tomato, onions, “a little bit” of garlic, basil and black and green olives. “And there we are,” he said, showing off the dish as it sat on the stove.
“I’m cooking for 12 people,” he said. “Hence the four pans.”
Downey deserved the VIP meal treatment after starring inOppenheimer, which he recently declared the “best film I’ve ever been in.”
TheChristopher Nolan-directedhistorical drama, which premieres in U.S. theaters July 21, features Downey as Lewis Strauss, primary antagonist of titular physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer.

Before he and his castmates walked out of the premiere in solidarity with theHollywood actors' strike, Downey went on to say that “no matter what your expectations are” going into the film, which follows the effort to create an atomic bomb during World War II, it “transcends that.”
“This is what a summer blockbuster, when I was growing up, used to be,” he continued. “It just kind of, like, changed your life. But again, you know, it’s why Chris Nolan is who he is.”
