The smells of Italy are intoxicating. Even in gritty urban areas where car horns cry out and scooters zip past, the sweet and spicy aromas are the only thing you’ll think about.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

Enjoy heaps of homemade tortellini in Bologna<\/a>, grab a cone of fried seafood in Venice, and linger in front of bakery windows in Naples wondering if there is room for one more dessert \u2013 even though you’ve already had two or three that day. In Italy<\/a> <\/strong>you will eat, but what you eat should depend on where you are. <\/span><\/p>\n

The country offers much more than pasta drowned in tomato sauce, and the American plate of spaghetti and meatballs does not exist on Italian menus. Instead, search out regional specialties that showcase the abundance of land and sea from north to south.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Pizza, the Italian staple<\/p><\/div>\n

Here are all the dishes you should eat, and all the tasty restaurants to eat them at:<\/p>\n

Rome<\/b><\/h2>\n

Bring your stretchy pants and eat pasta, lots and lots of pasta. While some come to the Eternal City in search of ruins, artwork, or religion, I came to eat. And while I often travel solo, the best part of being in Rome with a group<\/a><\/strong> was the ability to pass plates around with friends so that we were all equally satisfied and stuffed on as many dishes as possible. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to plan your day around food, start off with an espresso, but skip the croissant. They aren’t that good. Instead, save the calories for lunch and dinner.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Dig into plates of cacio e pepe (pasta with cheese and pepper), twirl your fork around strands of spaghetti alla carbonara (there’s no cream in the real deal), or dive into a richly satisfying bowl of bucatini all’amatriciana (red sauce with pecorino cheese and guanciale).<\/span><\/p>\n

Head to the cobbled alley neighborhood of Trastevere to rub shoulders with locals and dine at unpretentious eateries. Da Enzo is a favorite hole-in-the wall. You’ll need to queue for a table, but the wait is worth it for homey service, freshly-made pasta, and another classic Roman dish, carciofi alla giudia (Jewish-style fried artichokes). While in the neighborhood, also stop at one of the city’s best gelato shops, Fior di Luna.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Artichokes in Trastevere’s Trattoria Da Enzo<\/p><\/div>\n

Street food is also popular in the capital city. Take away porchetta sandwiches, suppl\u00ec (fried rice balls), and pizza al taglio (thick crust pizza sold by the slice).<\/span><\/p>\n

Florence<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Renaissance capital of the world, Florence is full of stunning architecture and priceless artwork. Yet even with a million-dollar atmosphere, the food is surprisingly humble and based on traditional peasant meals.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Florence at sunset<\/p><\/div>\n

If you want to dine on a budget, stick to a local menu. White bean soup in winter and panzanella salad in summer are a must. Those with daring taste-buds should bite into a lampredotto sandwich (tripe topped with spicy sauce). <\/span><\/p>\n

For a quick but delicious option, head to the Mercato Centrale\u00a0\u2013 a foodie’s paradise in the form of an upscale food court. Here you’ll find pasta, snacks, pizza, and Florentine specialties, including focaccia-style sandwiches overstuffed with meat and cheese. The prices are reasonable and there’s ample seating.<\/span><\/p>\n

Want to splurge? Fungus lovers must try tagliatelle with porcini and truffles. The rich pasta dish can be found all over the city, but is at its best when truffle season peaks in fall. Meat lovers, grab a friend or four and feast on Bistecca alla Fiorentina, a giant T-bone steak served rare. The price is per kilo, and the steaks average 1-3 kilos (2 – 6 pounds).<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Tagliatelle with porcini and truffles<\/p><\/div>\n

Sure, you’re full, but don’t forget about the sweet stuff. Gelato was invented here, and it’s where you’ll find some of the smoothest frozen treats in Italy. Try Gelato La Carraia which uses locally-sourced and organic ingredients, or Venchi which boasts a chocolate fountain of dreams.<\/span><\/p>\n

Venice<\/b><\/h2>\n

Venice’s magical labyrinth of small streets and canals makes it one of the top destinations in Italy. However, there are still plenty of mom & pop restaurants that serve up local fare. For the best meal, step away from the Grand Canal and head towards the back streets. <\/span><\/p>\n

Skip the pizza\u00a0\u2013 a ban on most wood-fired ovens on the island make it one of the worst places in the country for a traditional pie. Instead, devour cicchetti (Italian-style tapas). Choose from small bites of fresh fish, cheese, and deep-fried goodness paired with an Aperol Spritz for the perfect canal-side lunch.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Cicchetti in Venice<\/p><\/div>\n

Bring cash, as many of the b\u00e0cari (small bars) don’t accept credit cards. For a satisfying meal on the go, Acqua e Mais serves up the city’s best street food, including fried seafood, polenta or veggies in a paper cone. Best of all, it’s just steps away from the hectic Ponte di Rialto.<\/span><\/p>\n

Want a sit-down dinner? Walk past the prixe-fix tourist menus and head to restaurants that offer traditional Venetian fare including seafood risotto, vermicelli al nero di sepia (vermicelli with black squid ink), or risi e bisi (rustic rice and pea soup).<\/span><\/p>\n

Take a gelato break at Grom boasting traditional flavors, or Gelateria Il Doge for classic and creative offerings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bologna<\/b><\/h2>\n

If meat and cheese are your two favorite food groups, you’ll eat like a king in Bologna. Given its status as the world’s oldest college town, there are plenty of gut busting but extraordinarily delicious cheap eats, as well as high-end dining options in the medieval city. <\/span><\/p>\n

Stroll the Quadrilatero, a small maze of streets just off the Piazza Maggiore. They’re home to a host of vegetable, fish and cheese markets, as well as a number of cafes and wine bars. Satisfy a late afternoon snack attack with a hunk of mortadella and a glass of red wine at an outdoor cafe, but leave room for a rich dinner of pasta bolognese, the city’s signature dish.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

The tortellini I made at my pasta-making class!<\/p><\/div>\n

While you might not be able to smuggle a container of bolognese in your suitcase, you can do the next best thing\u00a0\u2013 learn to make it yourself. One of the highlights of my Intrepid Real Food Adventure<\/a><\/strong> to Bologna was a pasta-making class where we learned to make homemade tagliatelle pasta topped with bolognese sauce and cheese-stuffed tortellini.<\/span><\/p>\n

While the little navel-shaped pastas are easy to eat, it took the skilled hands of the instructor to guide me through the precise steps of rolling the egg dough thin enough so “you can see the hilltop church of San Luca through it.” There’s no going back to Barilla after savoring the homemade treasures.<\/span><\/p>\n

Craving ice cream? Try some of the city’s best gelato at Cremeria Funivia, a few blocks from the city center or La Sorbetteria Castiglione, which boasts several locations.<\/span><\/p>\n

EAT TONS OF ITALIAN FOOD (AND MAKE YOUR OWN PASTA) ON THIS ITALY REAL FOOD ADVENTURE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Milan<\/b><\/h2>\n

Milan is the fashion capital of Italy, and the most cosmopolitan city in the country. Here, it’s less about grandma’s casual kitchen, and more about traditional dining. And given the location in the north, butter, rice and meat rule menus as opposed to basil and pasta. <\/span><\/p>\n

While there are certainly budget options, including a budding street food scene, plan to spend more on dinners. Must-try dishes include risotto milanese flavored with saffron, pan fried veal cutlet, polenta, and Osso Buco (slow roasted veal shank).<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Milan by night<\/p><\/div>\n

Prefer to nibble on a budget? Head out for an aperitivo, the Italian version of happy hour. In many bars, if you order a drink (typically a wine, spritz, or beer) in the early evening, bite-sized food is free, including focaccia, olives, rice, pasta, cured meats or pizza slices.<\/span><\/p>\n

Satisfy your sweet tooth with a cream horns or Panarello cake (almond-flavored angel food) at Panarello bakery, in operation since the late 19th century. And while the Milanese may eat less ice cream than their southern neighbors, high-quality gelato can be found at several shops including Il Massimo Del Gelato, which always carries at least 6 to 8 chocolate flavors, and La Bottega del gelato where seasonal varieties are the highlight.<\/span><\/p>\n

There’s nothing like Italian gelato<\/p><\/div>\n

Naples<\/b><\/h2>\n

If, like me, your family traces its roots back to Southern Italy, or you crave the kind of comfort food typically found in the restaurants of Little Italies around the world, go to Naples. A walk through the small streets of the the Spanish Quarter is like a trip to your Italian grandmother’s house where the smell of olive oil, garlic and basil wafts through open windows.<\/span><\/p>\n

The food of Naples is uncomplicated, and street food and homey trattorias rule the city. Pizza, of course, is the main attraction. The soft, chewy crust with slightly burnt edges will ruin you for life as you realize that outside of Naples, the thing you call pizza is not the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best

Naples, with Mount Vesuvius in the background<\/p><\/div>\n

Try the Margherita at Pizzeria Brandi, the restaurant that invented it, or savor a slice at L\u2019Antica Pizzeria da Michele of <\/span>Eat, Pray Love<\/span><\/i> fame which has been serving up prized pies for five generations. For a quick snack, pizza fritta (deep fried calzone) can’t be beat. Pizzeria d\u2019\u00e8 Figliole is the place that locals go for a late-night fix. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Head to one of the many locations of Cafe Mexico for a morning coffee (taken while standing at the counter), and always leave room for dessert. Sfogliatella is the city’s signature pasty. For the best ones, seek out bakeries that serve the flaky pastry warm from the oven. Cool down after a hot day in the Naples sun with a gelato. Gay-Odin serves up some of the best gelato in their small shop where they also produce handmade chocolates.<\/span><\/p>\n
