Sample Dialog (alla trattoria)

Sample Dialog

A husband and wife enter a trattoria in early evening.

waiter (upon noticing the couple's arrival): Buona sera. Ha prenotato?
husband: No, non ho prenotato. Ha un tavolo libero per due?
waiter (indicating the way to an available table): Si, signore. Prego.

After a brief wait, a waiter arrives and leaves menus. Soon after, he returns to offer the couple a chance to order something to drink while contemplating the dinner orders.

waiter: Cosa da bere?
husband: Vorremo una bottiglia di acqua minerale naturale e del vino. C'e un vino bianco della casa?
waiter: Si. Una bottiglia?
husband: Potremmo avere un mezzo litro del vino?
waiter: Si - acqua minerale naturale e mezzo litro di vino bianco.

A member of the restaurant staff comes and puts some bread on the table. After a short while, the waiter returns with bottle of water and a beaker of wine. He leaves and returns again to take the dinner order.

waiter (readying order pad): Allora...
husband: Per cominciare, vorremo due bruschette(*), una bruschetta al tartufo ed una bruschetta semplice.
waiter (makes a quick note, then looks up again): Si.
husband: Per primi, un tagliatelle al tartufo e un linguini(*2) pomodoro.
waiter (again makes a quick note and looks up expectantly): Si.
husband: Per secondo, prendiamo due piatti di funghi porcini alla griglia.
husband: E dei contorni: patate fritte e spinaci saltati.

Waiter once again writes quickly to his pad, then looks up expectantly.

husband: È tutto.
waiter (with a certain approving air): Va bene.

Waiter walks off to deliver order and some time goes by during which the couple enjoys the water, the wine, the bread and the general ambience. In due course, the antipasti courses - two orders of bruschetta - arrive. The couple enjoys each course in turn, eventually finishing all the items so far ordered. Restaurant staff clear the empty dishes and other debris. The waiter returns.

waiter: Allora, altro? - dessert, caffè, digestivi?
husband: Una panna cotta et due caffè - anche il conto, per favore.

In a short while, the panna cotta arrives. The couple shares it and drinks the two espressos which arrive separately. A little time goes by and the check does not arrive.

husband (catching the waiter's eye): Scusi - il conto, per favore.

Soon after the check arrives. The couple pays the amount indicated, adding a 10 percent tip since no service charge has been included and the meal was very enjoyable. They then stand up and walk to the exit.

waiter (seeing the couple on their way out): Buona sera.
couple: Grazie, buona sera.

Where To Eat in Italy

Italy
Where To Eat

At one time there was a distinct difference between a trattoria and a ristorante, based on the type of clientele and the prices charged. Now they are virtually interchangeable.

Inexpensive meals can be found in stand-up snack bars that feature the tavola calda, which means "hot table." Usually frequented for lunch, these places feature a series of hot and cold dishes either to eat there or take out.

Rosticcerie are also places that offer hot and cold dishes to eat in or take out. At either the tavola calda or rosticceria, items are priced by the portion. You choose your food, pay the cashier, get a receipt(scontrino), and give that to the person behind the counter, who will dish up your food. Snack counters in bars sell ready-made sandwiches and so do paninotece, which are actual sandwich bars. You will also encounter pizzerias (very often open only in the evening, especially in Rome and Florence) and places called pizza a taglio or pizza rustica. These are hole-in-the-wall shops selling ready-made pizza by the slice. The pizza is cut to order and sold by weight. It is fun to try several small pieces. Seating is virtually nonexistent.

Other places for a quick bite or a simple meal include a latteria, which sells cheese, yogurt, and other dairy products; a gelateria, which serves ice cream; or a pasticceria, where you can go for a fresh pastry any time of the morning or afternoon. At il forno you can buy bread, and at an alimentari, salumeria, or gastronomia you can buy cold cuts, cheese, wine, bread, mineral water, and other foods to put together a picnic in the piazza or back in your hotel room. For a glass or two of wine and a light meal or snack, go to an enoteca, or wine bar. Osterias are also wine bars, but more the blue-collar type.

An Italian caffe, or bar, is much more than a place to drink coffee or alcoholic beverages. Here you can eat breakfast, have a snack, buy a sandwich, make phone calls, use the toilet, read the newspaper, listen to or watch sporting events, meet your neighbor or lover, and argue over politics. If there is a black-and-white "T" (for tobacco) displayed outside, you can also buy cigarettes, matches, some toiletries, stamps, and bus tickets. No wonder there are more than five thousand such places in central Rome alone.

PIZZA
Pizza Napoletana(Neapolitan pizza) admits only three official variants:

Pizza marinara: with tomato, garlic, oregano and oil;

Pizza Margherita: tomato, sliced mozzarella, basil and oil;

Pizza Margherita Extra: tomato, buffalo mozzarella from Campania in fillets, basil and oil.

Lazio style: Pizza in Lazio (Rome), as well as in many other parts of Italy is available in 2 different "flavours":
1) In take-away shops so-called "Pizza Rustica" or "Pizza a Taglio". Pizza is cooked in long, rectangular baking pans and relatively thick (1-2 cm). The crust similar to that of an English muffin and mostly cooked in an electric oven. When purchased, it is usually cut with scissors or knife and priced by weight.
2) In Pizza Restaurants (Pizzerie), where it is served in a dish in its traditional round shape, it features a very thin crust compared to Neapolitan recipe. It is mostly cooked in a wood-fired oven which gives pizza its unique flavour and texture. In Rome a "Pizza Napoletana" is topped with tomato, mozzarella, anchovies and oil (thus, what in Naples is called "Pizza Romana", in Rome is called "Pizza Napoletana"). Strangely enough, there is no "Pizza Napoletana" in Naples and no "Pizza Romana" in Rome.

Pizza Romana (in Naples): tomato, mozzarella, anchovies, oregano, oil;

Pizza Viennese: tomato, mozzarella, German sausage, oregano, oil;

Pizza con Funghi e Prosciutto (Pizza with Ham and Mushrooms): tomato, mozzarella, ham, mushrooms;

Pizza Capricciosa ("Capricious Pizza"): mozzarella, tomato, mushrooms, artichokes, cooked ham, olives, oil (in Rome raw ham is used and half a hard-boiled egg is added);

Pizza Quattro Stagioni ("Four Seasons Pizza"): same ingredients for the Capricciosa, but ingredients not mixed;

Pizza Quattro Formaggi ("Four Cheeses Pizza"): tomatoes, mozzarella, stracchino, fontina(*), gorgonzola (sometimes ricotta can be swapped for one of the last three);

Pizza alla siciliana (Sicilian-style Pizza) has its toppings baked directly into the crust. An authentic recipe uses neither cheese nor anchovies.

Pizza Bianca (White pizza) uses no tomato sauce, often substituting pesto or dairy products such as sour cream.

Ripieno or Calzone is a pizza in the form of a half moon, filled with ricotta, salami and mozzarella; it can be either fried or oven baked.

How To Eat Italian-Style

• A good waiter should explain the dishes on the menu and help you select the wine. But if you order coffee or tea during the meal, ask for the ketchup, bottle, or request a doggie bag... watch out, you will be in big trouble.
• Cocktails before dinner are not popular and are associated negatively with Americans and the three-martini lunch. However, an aperitif, such as a flute of sparkling wine to sip as you are deciding what to order, is often served.
• You do not have to order all of the courses in an Italian meal, but you will be expected to have more than a pasta and salad in a nice place. When you add the cover and service charges, fine dining will not be a Cheap Eat. If you want a true Cheap Eat, go to a cafeteria, snack bar, or dine al fresco with a picnic you have put together yourself.
• A guiding principle in Italian dining is that you eat one food at a time and that every food has its place. If you order a light supper of pasta and salad at an informal trattoria, you will be served the pasta first and the salad after. If you want to start your meal with a salad, the key word is "come", as in "come antipasto, vorrei un insalata mista" (as an antipasto, I would like a mixed salad), or "come secondo, vorrei un contorno" (as a second course, I would like a vegetable).
• If the waiter does not bring the Parmesan cheese, it probably does not go with what you are eating. Parmesan is never used on pasta with fish or lots of garlic, but it is offered with many types of soup.
• Bread is served with all Italian meals and is part of the pane e coperto charge. Butter is seldom served except with breakfast.
• The container of olive oil on the table is for more than sprinkling on your salad. A plain broiled or grilled fish is enhanced with a few drops of olio, and maybe some lemon.
• Don't order fish on Sunday, when the markets are closed: the fish will be at least one day old. In Venice, extend this to Monday, since the Rialto Fish market is closed that day as well.
• Coffee is served after a meal, never with it.
• Most places do not require men to wear a tie, but Italians do dress with casual elegance when they eat out, and they do not consider athletic shoes of any type to be acceptable with street clothes.
• Solo diners may be relegated to poor table locations. To avoid this as much as possible, reserve a table for two. Upon arrival, say your dining companion had to cancel at the last minute, and tell the waiter how sad this makes you. It usually works.
