But what do Italian&rsquo;s really eat every day, just pasta and pizza? The answer is no! There&rsquo;s more to Italian cuisine than just these 2 dishes. <strong>Check out these must eat local dishes of Italy&#8217;s most famous Cities.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When in Rome<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/xroman-dishes-pasta-cacio-pepe.jpg.pagespeed.ic_.UIjVcF5M5r.webp\"\/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The first mistake that everybody makes is thinking that Pizza is Rome&rsquo;s main dish. Don&rsquo;t get me wrong, you can find pizza everywhere but it&rsquo;s not considered a must eat by locals. Roman Cuisine was highly influenced by Greek back in the years, but also kept that typical Mediterranean way of eating: Simple ingredients. No wonder why one of Rome&#8217;s most famous dishes is <strong>&ldquo;Cacio e Pepe&rdquo;<\/strong> (Pasta with cheese and pepper). Pretty simple right? Simple, but extremely tasty and a must eat when in Rome. Another food that all locals eat is <strong>&ldquo;Suppl&igrave;&rdquo;<\/strong>, perfect for a small bite if you don&rsquo;t really want to sit down and eat. Just like the size of a meatball, inside there &rsquo;s rice, tomato sauce, Bolognese meat all covered with fried breadcrumbs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>When in Florence<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/xflorence-dishes-bistecca-fiorentina.jpg.pagespeed.ic_.r9ECxLTAe_.webp\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you ever happen to be in Florence you will definitely realize the most famous dish there: <strong><em>Bistecca alla Fiorentina<\/em><\/strong>. In front of every restaurant, you will see these big fridges containing large cuts of T-bone steaks ready to be grilled. Florentine steaks normally weight between 1 and the 3 kilos, but every waiter will ask the amount that you desire. (obviously, the steaks are priced by weight). Make sure you never ask to cook the steak to your like, A true chef will only cook it one way (Almost medium-rare) and probably be offended if you ask in another! Don&rsquo;t&rsquo; forget to ask a glass of red wine to accompany your Florentine Steak, Tuscany has the best-selected wines ever!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When in Venice<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/xvenice-dishes-baccala-polenta.jpg.pagespeed.ic_.IOrkRIusJZ.webp\"><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Due to its geographic position, when you sit at a restaurant in Venice you will probably find a great variety of dishes based on fish and seafood on the menu. So many different dishes but what one should you choose? Definitely <strong>&ldquo;<\/strong><em><strong>Baccala&rsquo; Mantecata&rdquo;<\/strong>, <\/em>the main course dish of salted Baltic codfish served with a creamy sauce. Don&rsquo;t forget to order a dish of <strong>&ldquo;polenta&rdquo;,<\/strong> a creamy mix of semolina cornmeal to accompany your Baccal&agrave;, it will keep your dinner tasty and light!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Might interest you<\/strong>&nbsp;\u27a1\ufe0f&nbsp;<strong><a title=\"Go to Tour\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cityrometours.com\/en\/venice-tours\/walking-tour-of-hidden-venice.html\">Walking Tour of Hidden Venice &amp; Iconic Gondola Ride<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When in Naples<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/xpizza-portafoglio-naples.jpg.pagespeed.ic_.o10a96wYB0.webp\"><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When you reach Naples, you can definitely say that their Pizza is a must eat! But&hellip; not the normal size pizza that you eat in restaurants. Keep your eyes open while in the city center and you&rsquo;ll definitely see small stands just outside Caff&egrave;s, restaurants and ice cream shops. Get a little bit closer you&rsquo;ll discover a delicacy that you will not find in any other city: <strong>&ldquo;Pizza a portafoglio&ldquo;<\/strong>. So it literally means Pizza with the shape of a wallet, that already gives you an idea. The best Part of these small-folded pizzas is that they are fried and only cost 1 EURO! So practically, you can have lunch spending less than what you pay a coffee for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out these must eat local dishes of Italy&#8217;s most famous Cities<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":36,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-travel-in-italy"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35\/revisions\/44"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adventuresandtickets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
