Italian food in Italy is totally overrated. It’s expensive and at best just average. I can take you to a restaurant right now and in ten minutes you’ll be eating the best Italian food ever in Chicago. The socialists have killed Italy and France is little better. How much was the strawberry?
I’m not the strawberry person, lol!
My point was about Italian cooking - not necessarily restaurants. Actually, a lot of the food in Rome was lousy - you had to be careful where you ate. My husband’s relatives in Sicily were very good cooks. You haven’t lived until you’ve seen Sicilians pour olive oil into baby bottles!
