I used to go to an Italian restaurant that served triangles of fried bread (Mother's Pride) with anchovies to be mashed thereon. It was fúcking mint.

Worst pizza I've ever had in my life - Verona, Italy. True story. Filled with locals the restaurant was, heaving with 'em.

In fact, one osteria in Verona aside, I have never eaten well in Italy.
