    The food was excellent of course. In Northern Italy, the bread is rather disappointing. However, there was enough other really good stuff to make up for it. We could buy southern Italian bread if we knew where to look for it, and our friends did that for us.

    The ravioli in the picture is hand braided (each one!) and they all have tails. This was in a restaurant.

    The Chino is a slightly bitter soft drink that Raleighdon loved.

    you all know what Gelato is, right?
