Italian Food - update

Pizza - no idea, we skipped it, it looked funny: square with odd toppings.
Lasagna - veggie lasagna was excellent, cream sauce not a red
Gelato - same as in America
Cannolli - ah hear is the problem, Cannolli is not really an Italian food, but a Sicilian food. We had a very difficult time finding them in Rome. It became a mission. On the last night we finally succeeded. Here they use ricotta cheese instead of marcscapone cheese. Also there is candied fruit, ala cherry, on the edge. No chocolate chips or nuts.

Latte - is just warm or cold milk, Alison says yucky milk. Order a caffe latte if you are looking for the American latte.
