Visiting Italy? Do the museums, but don't miss the sagre!

Thursday July 3, 2008
If you visit Italy in the summer you have three options when it comes to food.
  • Traditional restaurants, best selected with the help of some sort of guide, for example my restaurant reviews, or Arthur Shwartz's (he concentrates on the South).
  • Pizza, which can be very good or very bad, depending upon where you go. Tips for selecting a pizzeria, and popular Italian pizzas.
  • Go to a sagra, the Italian equivalent of a country fair, and enjoy the local specialties. You'll likely need a car to get there, but it's more than worth the rental fee to get out of town and enjoy a relaxed, informal, and very tasty meal.
