Planning a trip to Italy is half about
the history and beauty and half about the food. Enjoying everything that
Italian cuisine has to offer can be daunting, especially since most of the
really exciting options are outside the big cities.
Alba
Alba's greatest culinary(烹饪的) offering is the Festa dei Tartufi -
the White Truffle Fair - which takes place across every weekend in October and
November. It offers world-famous truffles from the local area, as well as the
Truffle Show. The fair also features folk traditions as well as the food and
drink, particularly aiming at educating children and thus making the event fun
for all the family.
Minori
Minori is known for its handmade pasta
- particularly scialatielli, a thick and short pasta similar to linguine, which
features heavily on local menus, along with pastries made from the local lemons
as with other towns on the Amalfi Coast.
Procida
The main attraction, however, is the
food - the local lemons, often called limoni pane or "bread lemons",
thanks to their large amounts of pith, are the main ingredient in a popular
local dish: lemon salad, in which the lemons are flavored and garnished with
garlic and mint.
Naples
Naples made its stamp on culinary
history with the invention of the pizza and has maintained it to the modern-day
by having more stars from the Michelin Guide than any other Italian city. It's
appropriate, then, that it plays host to numerous food festivals, including the
Marco Island Seafood and Music Festival, and the Mercato Spring Fling and Food
Festival. The former, founded to raise money for charity, takes place in March
each year over the course of three days. The latter is only a month later, in
April, with Mercato restaurants providing a range of food and bar options.
