Insisting that Ella and Alexander are no fussy eaters, the 'Money Monster' actor gushes that his toddler twins enjoy Italian food made by the family’s chef.

AceShowbiz - George Clooney has opened up on his twins' eating habits and admitted they love pizza, risotto and ricotta cheese.

The "Gravity" actor and his wife, civil rights lawyer Amal Clooney, along with their one-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander, divide their time between homes in England and Lake Como, Italy.

But the one constant is their 33-year-old cook Viviana Frizzi, who George first hired to prepare meals for them in 2013.

"(Viviana) can make anything, including handmade gnocchi with pesto that would make you cry," George tells PEOPLE. "Vivi cooks almost every night for us now because we have the twins. Going out isn't as easy or as interesting as it used to be. Besides all of our friends would rather eat her food than hit up a local restaurant in Como or in London."

And it seems the twins enjoy eating Viviana's food just as much as their parents.

"The twins are not fussy eaters," she laughs, revealing salmon, tomato risotto, Margherita pizza, and ricotta with raspberries are always on the menu for the toddlers. "When they like a dish, they put their little fingers on their cheeks, smile and say, Mmm!"

The Clooneys' weekly pizza nights have become legendary and guests love the pies Viviana bakes, but the couple also enjoys her sushi dishes, risotto and Lebanese and Indian treats.

Although Viviana never disappoints with her creations, she has failed to teach the Clooneys how to cook for themselves.

"Honestly, Amal and I are such poor chefs that any lesson from Vivi in the kitchen would be like teaching a whale to fly," George adds.
