Cuisine(recipes,food, wine)

Italian food's international reputation is certainly well deserved. Pizza, pasta, osso buco, and rissoto are staples in Italian's diets. The order of dishes in a traditional Italian meal is as follows: antipasti, primo, secondo, contorni et dolci. Make your choice! In general, Italians don't eat a five course meal everyday. They keep it two to or three simple courses.

They say that pizza was originally a poor person's dish. A bunch of ingredients (whatever one could get his hands on) were thrown onto a piece of dough and the whole thing was put in the oven. Today, pizza is one of the most popular dishes in the world.
