and our timezones are off...
I just wanted to pop in to your world to say:

Since the weekend is upon us,
and you don't have to see your boss for 2 glorious days...
let's play a game:
If you were headed with me to Italy today...
What is the first thing we would eat????
{I've got food on my mind today!}
gelato!!! pistacio gelato, hands down!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE that cute poster! have an absolute blast!
I remember having the most fabulous meal at "Joia"-a vegetarian delight.
ReplyDeleteI think anything drizzled with balsamic and fresh virgin olive oil -is yummy. Enjoy!
pve
OLIVES! Enjoy, lady!
ReplyDeletegelato, gelato, gelato!!! ugh there is the most AMAZING place to the left of the trevi fountain (if you're facing the fountain) and i went EVERY night in rome for one scoop of chocolate hazlenut and one scoop of coconut. italian version of almond joy :)
ReplyDeleteLBK, can I live through you for a few years? Oh, how I wish to be with you at all of the glorious little restaurants. For me, you could just eat everything. But, mostly pasta in every shape.
ReplyDeleteLove ya!
I'd hope to meet you in Scandicci at via triozzi for a bowl of pasta and tea/cookies. If we met in Florence then expresso and pastries near the duomo.
ReplyDeletean original risotto! yummy!!
ReplyDeleteenjoy Lauren!! xoxo
Neopolitan Pizza followed by Gelato. YUMMM! Hope you are having a fabulous trip!
ReplyDeleteYeah Friday! I would eat a big Margarita Pizza and Caprese Salad - when I was there, I ate this every day!
ReplyDeleteMozzarella di bufala--I think I've eaten a Caprese salad in every Italian city I've ever been in.
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend!
Great question! How about an antipasto dish, with a variety of Italian meats, cheeses and olives with a glass of chianti?
ReplyDeletehmm, it is so hard to choose because I believe all Italian food is wonderful and should be enjoyed ;) But if I had to tell you the FIRST thing...hmmm, probably gelato because it's amazing. But I also would recommend an Italian pizza with prosciutto...my mouth is watering just thinking of it.
ReplyDeletei was all set to leave a witty comment that said: two words...pistachio. gelato. but then miss bright beat me to it! oh miss bright....we really are blog twins! love her! hope you are enjoying yourself muchly madamoiselle!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to agree with others before me and say a Caprese salad. I literally ate it at every meal. You cannot get better Mozzarella anywhere. Ok, now my mouth is watering.
ReplyDeleteI second the gelato...followed by a cappuccino! My mama is in Italy right now. I'm soooooooo jealous!
ReplyDeleteGELATO! I agree with Caprese Salad, I actually had this really really really yummy pesto Lasagna in Florence, Italy which was TO DIE FOR! :) Try getting something like that! Oh and speghetti is always a classic, with some great wine! :)
ReplyDeleteCan you tell I am hungry?!

Any of the pastas at Acqua Al 2 in Flornce, then stroll up the way for gelato at Grom near il Duomo! So jealous that you're in Italy in September - truly the best month to visit!
ReplyDeleteI had the best meal of my life in Vicenza, Italy, and have never had gnocchi like it again...so that would be on my list, and then risotto, and then pasta, oh and gelato for dessert! --Gretchen O.
ReplyDeletesomething wonderful with fish
ReplyDeleteI would gorge on pasta and red wine! Then some gelato for dessert. Yum! Drink a bottle for me while you're there please!
ReplyDeletebolognese, margherita, chianti, ah the list goes on and I do wish I was there right now!
ReplyDeletenaina
gelato!!
ReplyDeleteWe would definitely go to Golden View and get some four cheese truffle ravoli. SO glad you recommended that...ugh I wish I could eat it RIGHT NOW.
ReplyDeleteSo happy I found your blog... It is beautiful! Having honeymooned in Italy I would go back to Capri - I forget the exact restaurant - for some of the best lasagna I have ever had...ever! I would follow this with some gelato!
ReplyDeleteBlessings.
