When I was in college I placed my purse on the floor and an older lady came by and put on chair. She said if you place your purse on the floor you will loose money. I’m so jealous every time I watch you take a bite! Italian food is my favorite and I can only imagine experiencing it in its motherland. I have enjoyed watching you both and your travels!

[@susancarpenter7682]

Please show more northern Italian specialties in the USA we are bombarded with southern Italian cooking…

[@gobbidimerda1]

You are so right. As a nothern italian it annoys me that people around the world think that our cuisine is just the one from the south, tomato and mozzarella everywhere. I come from Piedmont and I don't think we have a single traditional dish with tomato in it...I'm not saying southern cooking is bad, it's delicious, but we have so much more variety in our country.

[@riccardodotto84]

You're right,especially from northeast of Italy wich have a tradition deeply melted with Austria,Slovenia and Hungary too!You can find a lot of amazing flavors !

[@BigSmallTravel]

​@@riccardodotto84 It is Italian mostly with a little French on the whole.

[@marcdalfriul]

@@BigSmallTravel It is not. 😂 Friuli, Trieste and Trentino-South Tyrol are very cereal European in terms of cuisine. It's close to Austrian and Slovenian one, not really French

[@tlacorp.3813]

@@marcdalfriul Romans founded many towns in Austria so it is northern Italy to me. Slovenia should be part of Italy as well Istria in Croatia as they were part of the Venetian Republic.

[@marcocarlson1693]

The worst part about it is the 'stuff' you said you had trouble eating again probably cost you more, or at least the same as in Italy. I can understand and empathize with you. In Italy they don't purposely price gouge you like in most other countries, just rip you off to enrich themselves. The prices Italians charge for the level of food is worth every cent and more.

[@Dulitzlives]

Thanks for allowing me to live vicariously through you. I can't afford a $200 lunch nor plane tickets to Italy but i did so enjoy watching you two enjoy that beautiful meal. GREAT VIDEO! Fun to watch.

[@hedonisticallyhealthy8577]

Granted there is the plane ride involved and this meal was certainly not inexpensive especially with all the wines, but you might be surprised to know that there are some Michelin star restaurants ( likely not all tablecloth restaurants) that are very affordable. The Michelin website even has a search feature where you can sort restaurants by price and choose ones if you are "on a budget"

[@barmalini]

As a vegetarian, I watched the video enjoying the look of you two enjoying the food, and it was great

[@deanflet973]

Hello From Lake Tahoe California. I used to live in Italy when I was a kid been talking to friends and we were thinking of visiting during the summer time and travel all over Italy and I would like to visit Rome as well because I was Baptized there.😎👍

Been a while since I ate Pitina, it's available in such a small area... even if the southern part of Friuli is basically impossible to get.

[@ThePasinis]

the Gnocchi was just wow 😉

[@ritajaklitsch7559]

Mandi! I fully agree about the cheese! Montasio is my very favourite cheese. From soft and young Latteria to the very old, yellow wax-like one. I grew up very close to the border to Friuli in Carinthia and for many years we owned a house in Aqulieia. - Living in Vienna now, my parents have to always provide us with Montasio from Ugovizza. We will definitely check out this Trattoria!

[@DANIELJRAINEY]

[@Ameslan1]

The prices look very reasonable for a Michelin restaurant! That is great!

[@katrinlausch3078]

Because they have a Bib Gourmand 2023 which places get for a good value-for-money (they do not have any star). So the food is very good but the prices still affordable

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

The history of prosciutto stretches back to pre-Roman times. In San Daniele in Friuli, it was the Celtic people who first began preserving meat with salt (then the Romans began air curing), and in Parma it was the peasants. Unlike speck (Speck Alto Adige PGI) from the South Tyrol region, prosciutto is not smoked. There is also a tradition of making prosciutto in southern Switzerland. There is evidence of a market taking place in San Daniele as far back as 1063, so it's likely that, by this time, the curing and selling of prosciutto was commonplace in the region. Wild boar is everywhere! They're native to Eurasia and North Africa, but they've since been introduced to the Americas and Oceania and are now one of the widest-ranging mammals in the world. Destroying crops, native vegetation, ruining water quality, they cause huge problems in the places where they're invasive.

[@terriatwell4041]

I' ve only ever had good gnocchi in Italy. Everytime I have tried it in the US it tastes like paste. One of my favorite dishes was gnocchi with pesto that I had at a restaurant in Florence. Thank you for taking us along.

I’ve waited for the sentence „I don’t belong here.“ - as someone who eats regularly in good restaurants, I’ve heard that quite often. And I always say the same thing: „Do you enjoy the food? Do you enjoy the experience? Do you honour the work and craftsmanship?“ if you can say „Yes!“ to this… you absolutely BELONG here! ☺️🥂

I married a friulano, radicchio, polenta, baccala`, spezzatino, coniglio con vino bianco, and of course prosciutto San Daniele, and much more. Let's not forget trippe, so good cooked in wine sauce.
