Read this to prep for my upcoming trip to Italy. I liked the mix of food and travel, recipes and restaurants. I learned a lot about pasta, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I'm not a seafood person, so there were several chapters that didn't interest me and I definitely could have gone without the reminder that Europeans eat horse meat. I also just really didn't like the author much. Something about her grated on my nerves, although I'll still check out her blog for more advice on the specific places I'm visiting. But, it did make me wonder if I'll really be happy with her recommendations. Rick Steve's recommends he blog though, and I trust him.

Мислех да чета книгата, но после ми попадна в 'Сторител'и я изслушах. Дава някои интересни факти и рецепти, но не ме впечатли особено.

I happily dug into an early copy of Minchilli's latest (thanks to NetGalley!) to immerse myself in the land that I love, Italia. She's no stranger to the culinary landscape of Rome, but this time she sets out to other environs and digs into the food culture of cities such as Venice, Bari, Naples and Milan. She has a fantastic way of diving into the culture of each area and making you desperately hungry for its cuisine. I am already wishing for a follow-up book, exploring even more of Italy. Her recommendations look spot on and I can't wait to find out for myself when I return to la bella paese.

Minchilli has given me some great advice via her app. I’ve happily eaten my way around Rome and Florence with her suggestions. So I was particularly happy to receive an ARC of “Eating My Way Through Italy”. With all of the brio of her website and app recommendations, she takes us on an extended tour of “The Boot”, with stops in many of the lesser travelled locales. I’m super-excited to travel with her book in hand next summer, and enjoy the delights of “eating around Italy."
