We miss your country, too and I hope you get to visit again, soon! Apulia is high on our list and if you have specific suggestions, I'd love to know them 😊
@@aWanderlustForLife I'd personally go to the tip of the "boot". That region is called Salento and food-wise, believe me, you won't be disappointed 😁 Just try a "pasticciotto" for breakfast and then let me know 😋
We stayed a week only on the east side of Sicily and still didn't see everything we wanted to in that area. I highly recommend it, but I also recommend doing a lot of research so you get to see/do everything you want.
The odd thing is that there really is no such thing as ‘Italian’ food except in countries like the UK, Australia and US. Everything in Italy is strongly regional, totally different - apart from a few superficial similarities - and very different from region to region, and even within regions. For example, if you asked someone from any of the countries listed above to name 10 famous ‘Italian’ dishes, it’s likely not a single one could be called Sicilian, or Pugliese, or Tuscan, indeed, much of the generic ‘Italian’ food such as ‘Carbonara’, ‘Bolognese’ and so forth is easier to find in London, Melbourne, New York...or Amsterdam than most parts of Italy. Great to see a Sicilian arancino - or arancina depending on which part of Sicily you happen to be!
I guess the question is for the viewer to decide if it's the best food in Italy. I would have a hard time answering that question, myself 😋 but I think it gets a person thinking about what they expect in Italian food vs what they will find. I agree with you! And it's one reason why I love Italy... for it's regional identities. Thanks so much for the thoughtful comment!

Did you stay more than a few days in Sisley? Would you recommend ?
