I was in Italy for two weeks,  two years ago. I had no problem going to a restaurant & getting steak, fish, lasagna or any other dish. I was in Rome, Florence, Venice & many other places.

Gary, Italy is known for its great cuisine. Pizza is not a meal…at least it should not be.  Venice, being near the sea (Adriatic) is good for fish and sea food.  For one of the best steaks anywhere, Florence is known for irs bistercca alls fiorentina (Beefsteak Florentine style. Do not expect a large steak. (unless things have changed). But it is quite good.  Rome has a great variety of food and I find it very good.  When you go abroad , be adventurous. The various pasta dishes are quite good and interesting but remember that past is the “primo” First dish and should be followed by the main dish (meat or fish). Have fruit for desert (macedonia) or go to the gelateria for a fantastic ice cream.  Go to a caffe’ for a coffee….espresso or americano (ugh).  There are MacDonalds all over Italy. They are not quite same as ours, thank God, but why go there.  Rice in the north (Venice) Pasta (Rome) Florence either or.  Did you get my other two emails? Were they helpful? You are going to three of the most beautiful cities in the world. Enjoy them to the full. Ciao! Stammi bene, amico!
