Your best culinary memory in Italy

Post new topic

Hello everyone,

As you know, every country has its own flavours and tasting the local cuisine is a great way to discover the culture of a destination. Whether it's a small typical restaurant to taste local dishes, a traditional meal in a local's home, street food or fast food, there is something for everyone!

So, which dish do you want to try in Italy?
Which dish has impressed you the most and when did you discover it?
Do you know how to cook it and share it with your family?

Thank you for your taste contribution ;)

That's a tall order in a country like Italy.

I especially remember some roasted tuna in a restaurant near Tropea in Calabria.

This was on a charcoal grill which I don't have access to so difficult to replicate.

Otherwise tuna is cooked almost raw on the grill which has a lighter flavour. This in more northerly parts of Italy.

On the meat side boar pasta from Tuscany never fails to delight but boar is rarely found in UK supermarkets...
