This is my kind of risotto! Just discovered your site, you should have a disclaimer "Do not visit when hungry!"

Thanks a lot for your hints on german cuisine. In March I'll be in Munich for a conference and your site is really rich of suggestions on where to go after a day full of statistics

Lori, Thanks for stopping by! As soon as I'll discover artichokes at the market I will consult the chapter about the artichokes of Chiusure - for sure ;) Hi Rossella, You name it. I can't help but feel a little wary, if people write about a certain cuisine without having lived in the respective countries, at least for some time. If you love Austrian cuisine, maybe you want to check out my friend Johanna's blog, she's a native Austrian with fantastic cooking skills! And my friend Hande just recently moved from Germany to Rome, her blog is another great read!

Funny! I'm Italian, born in the North, and living in Rome for almost 5 years. In Rome I've learned to cook and re-discover my family recipies and my culinary background. And I didn't own a cookbook on Italian cuisine. But often I search for inspiration in english, french and german blogs. And it's funny that many of the books on italian food are written by no-italian people. I'm in love with german cuisine: what wonderful cakes and soups I eaten in Oesterreich and German.
