Italy, three cities, two anniversaries, and meals I'll spend years trying to recreate.
Photo notes:
Lobster tagliolini at Ai Barbacani, Venice — canalside table, my wife's birthday
Fettuccine Alfredo at Il Vero Alfredo, Rome — the original, post-Vatican
Pizza margherita — a tiny place in Cologna, no English spoken, completely unpretentious and completely perfect
Bistecca Fiorentina at Trattoria Dalloste, Florence — my one objective in the city. Best steak of my life.
"Hemingway-style" risotto at Club del Doge, Venice — signature dish, couldn't pass it up
Amuse-bouche at Aroma, Rome — my birthday, that view
Open pasta at Aroma — worth every penny
Gelato at Suso, Venice — recreating a photo from almost 10 years ago

Allow me to comment about my observation: I can tell there’s some thought behind your username, and I appreciate it. It’s beneficial to not take a machine-generated suggestion without any reflection. I mean, everybody including me could come up with a random combination like DirectLine-5902. You, however! Well done! 🏷

Looks amazing and I bet it tasted like that too.
How did you actually go about eating lobster pasta with the shell?
