The most complete Italian-language menu translator available, plus
great restaurant picks for Italy's major cities and towns
It isn't the chicken you thought you ordered. It's a plate of cold
brains. Nor is it the delectable slices of beef braised in red
wine; those are veal kidneys. These are the pitfalls of ordering
off a menu in a foreign country. To prevent just such accidents, we
give you Andy Herbach's "Eating & Drinking in Italy." This
guide offers the most complete Italian-language menu translator
available, plus great restaurant picks for Italy's major cities and
towns Menus written in a foreign language are confusing and filled
with slang and idioms. Uccelli scappatti are skewered sausages
grilled with sage, but the word means "escaped birds." Stinco is
braised veal or pork shank. Nothing can make a trip more enjoyable
and rewarding than being able to order a great meal without having
an anxiety attack. The new 7th edition of Eating & Drinking in
Italy includes:
- A great (and down-to-earth) restaurant guide
- A comprehensive Italian-menu translator
- Advice on restaurant etiquette
- A short pronunciation guide
- Opinions on everything food-related, from what to eat to where to
get it...
