Ciao luca di dove sei? (Hi Luca where are you from in Italy?)

Cacciucco is a special Livornese soup fish, if some of you came in Livorno don't forget it. ric

..... and you Daniele, shall tell them how good are the Tortellini of Valeggio, the Offella Perbellini (a Xmas cake that puts shame to the Milanese Panettone) and the Monte Veronese di malga dop (an Italian super cheese) ! What about meeting all of us in spring in Luzzara where our friend Paul Strand shot the photos of "Un paese" ? ..... and if we organise, how many of our American friends will join ? Just a question .....

You all are making me hungry!

My wife and I were married in Florence and very much enjoyed the weeks we spent there. If we could live anywhere other than Colorado - it would be Italy!

[merlo.luca1961@libero.it]

Eric and wife are enrolled for our meeting in Luzzara (see my post). We owe them one since they live Colorado (fantastic !) and they got married in Firenze. Who else ?

Ehi!
Non e' giusto!
Voi parlate di cibo Italiano come se niente fosse, ma non pensate che qui' ci sono immigranti che soffrono ogni giorno per la mancanza delle materie prime.
Vergogna!!
Benvenuto, Luca, se vieni in California, fammelo sapere, ma non dimenticarti di portare una bottiglia di Chianti a il formaggio di fossa

It;s not fair!
You guys talk about Italian food as if it was nothing and don't think that there are immigrants who suffer for the lack of genuine ingredients.
Shame on you!!

[merlo.luca1961@libero.it]

Ciao Domenico,

If I show up in California I will definitely take you some Pecorino di Fossa (another super Italian cheese) from Solignano and your well deserved bottle (I would say fiasco) of Chianti.

Best regards

Luca

You guys are making me hungry. Remembering the times I used to go out into the beach in Castlevoltourno (lived there 8 years) and scooping up some tellini and cotso (sp?) and the wife would make a meal of it with a little tomato, olive oil, garlic and pasta. The eating in Italy is by far the best in the world. And I have been all over it too. Loved walking to the salumaria and getting some salami, procuitto, mozzerella and pannini. Castlevoltourno was in the middle of mozzerella country.
