Foood!

Wow. The food here is really really good. There are honestly too many types to talk about. But for me the gelato wins over all of them..
Every day for lunch, you have first a type of pasta or rissotto. But usually its pasta.  Then, you have some vegetables. And after that you always have the meat. But, if they serve fish, they have the pasta, then the fish and then the vegetables.  Its a very strict schedule, and if you dont follow it I think you might not survive. :p

Also, after every meal, they have fruit.  Whether its Oranges, pears, apples. It is usually different everyday, but they ALWAYS have fruit.

For dinner, you also always have a set schedule. 
1st: Either a salad or what you didnt finish for lunch
2nd: Vegetables
3rd: Meat
Also fruit, but usually for dinner we also eat a dessert after the main food.  It could be cookies, canoli, anything sweet really. 

I know I kind of went in a random order, but for breakfast we usually eat biscotti, or toast with nutella.  Also, they almost always drink warm milk with chocolate. Although its not the greatest.  On sunday, the mother always spends all day cooking a huge meal, and then the grandparents and cousins and everyone comes to eat it with you.  I think Sunday is the day for everybody to meet and just relax.

Ok, now the photos:
1st: Pasta with tomatos and parmesan cheese for lunch.
2nd: Canoli with chocolate and with ricotta. Personally I think ricotta is better, but chocolate is also pretty good.  On the top are pistacchios.
3rd: Farfalle with tomatos, but NOT parmesan. Its a type of ricotta that is salty. Also with basil on the top.
4th: To tell you the truth I cant remember the name. But it had very little meat and it took a long time to get to.  It was similar to a shrimp, but definately not as good.
5th: Nutella crepe XD Amazing.
6th: Tortellini with spinach and ricotta. Very very good..
