Really easy to do. You need: spaghetti, fresh tomato, basil, oil and salt!

PIZZA MARGHERITA

The popular pizza Margherita owes its name to Italy's Queen Margherita who in 1889 visited a famous Pizzeria in Naples. The Pizzaiolo (pizza maker) on duty that day, Raffaele Esposito , created a pizza for the Queen that contained the three colours of the new Italian flag: the red of tomato, white of the mozzarella and fresh green basil.

The real bistecca fiorentina comes from an ancient Tuscan breed, one of the world’s largest: the Chianina cow. It isn’t a typical cut, it is very thick!

THE BISTECCA FIORENTINA

CURED MEAT

The best place to discover this incredible range of cured meats is the salumeria. They sell the most renowned salumi: Prosciutto di Parma, Prosciutto Cotto, Mortadella, Pancetta, Soppressata, and more.

THE TIRAMISU’

Tiramisu was invented in the 1960’s in a restaurant in Treviso, Italy. Literally translated, Tiramisu means "pick me up" or "carry me up“, probably because it is made with strong coffee and Marsala.
