Here are just a few tips on ordering food in Italian. Food is survival, and ordering food in Italian is your language tool for your survival. Sure you can point at a picture and nod, but what if your driving through the alps, or the southern country side and you stop in a small village, don't expect the locals to be versed in English and don't expect a menu with lovely pictures on it, be prepared.
I guess we all expect the staple Italian diet to be pizza and spaghetti, but Italian food has so much more to offer when you've explored the various fashions and styles of Italian cuisine.
OK, so cafes are everywhere, I don't want to digress but discovering which sumptuous coffee you prefer is worth its weight in gold!
Back to food and on the grammatical side you'll need to learn the adjectives and nouns that all come with either masculine or feminine forms when ordering.
Try and discover which style of cooking or which dish you prefer and explore the multiple types of variations these tastes have to offer. If your a lover of Roman Style cooking, take yourself out to a Trattoria.
"Cucina Italiana" Italian cooking, has a unique style of it's own, if your hobby is cooking and you haven't already done so, take yourself through the process of cooking a "lasagna al pesto". Once perfected I'm sure you'll add this to your list whilst on your travels through Italy.
If you verse yourself with foods you'd purchase from a grocery store in Italian, you'll learn how to put an Italian menu together, understanding the ingredients and subsequently the food which you desire so much. Good luck!.
