Italy 2010
Day 3
We’ve settled into the Italian life and used our limited knowledge of Italian to get around Rome in the half day we had before moving to cooking school. During previous trips, we walked a lot instead of getting on the wrong bus or wrong subway. Fortunately, we know enough now to ask questions, read signs, and feel comfortable without English.
The highlight of the day was joining others at cooking school in the evening after a train ride from Rome. It looks like we'll have a great group of people to be with for the week! The welcoming dinner filled every part of our stomachs. Having a 7-course meal where our waiter tried to serve us seconds of every course made the term “eating school” come to mind. Our favorite was a dish of thin pasta pouches filled with a special German meat and radicchio, topped with a cream sauce. Sadly we don’t learn to make these but we are sure there will be other wonderful pastas to make.
