Tried to get a meal “to go” in Venice and someone’s grandparents who owned the spot made me sit down and eat a multi course meal. Best gnocchi I’ve ever had in my life though.

In Rome, my American boss tried to order tortellini pasta with carbonara sauce... I told him not to. He tried. He was told "no".

@OperaBrendaSLP @ItalianComments An English colleague ordered cheese w her pasta alle vongole at La Cambusa in Bologna. She noticed the waiter’s face, said, I’m sorry; he said, if you want.
Later the whole staff marched out carrying her pasta, behind it, a 🚫 sign + behind that, freshly grated parmigiano.

@pavsmith @ItalianComments I still remember a waiter/maitre in Frascati (Rome) over 30 years ago, telling us of some Germans who had ordered Carbonara + some emmenthal cubes and green salad on a side plate, and then mixed everything together. They were (deservedly) thrown out.
