You Say Turin, I Say Torino. One week of food and culture in Torino. And coffees at a local cafe called Bar Inter Caffe. And then walked toward the center. It rained lightly all day and the cold made it miserable. We passed by a ritzy men's shop liked by celebrities and royalty. When in Milan, stop and look up every once in a while. There are nice parts of the city center. We wandered around and found Antica. Fried rice balls), sfincione. What in NYC we call Sicilian pizza), and caponata. Well, just one.

You Say Turin, I Say Torino. One week of food and culture in Torino. This is our last day in Italy for who knows how long. It is a sad day. The weather was extremely frigid today. To warm us up it was necessary we have a traditional caldo. Or hot chocolate. We found a beautiful paticceria. That served it. It was thick and really rich like a melted chocolate bar- amazing! Drink of the gods. Good to the last drop. We then went to the. There were not a lot of lunch options around until we stumbled upon.

You Say Turin, I Say Torino. One week of food and culture in Torino. The flight from Amsterdam was only 90 minutes. At the airport we bought the Torino 7-day card. Which gives us free entrance to tons of sights and museums and covers trams and bus transportation. It was totally worth getting and it definitely paid for itself. Newly renovated kitchen that I will not be using. Fold out sofa bad, lumpy but comfy. First time not seeing the Alps from a plane. It looks a lot like Italy from here. We walked aro...

You Say Turin, I Say Torino. One week of food and culture in Torino. I actually say both. We have traveled extensively throughout Italy and had yet to explore the north. We chose Piemonte's Torino, the first capital of unified Italy, for a taste of this part of the country in the week around New Year 2010. We also took a train to Milano for one night to see its famous duomo. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My other travel blogs. View my complete profile. Simple template. Powered by Blogger.

You Say Turin, I Say Torino. One week of food and culture in Torino. We took a lot of pictures today. First we went to the market at Piazza della. In which stands the largest open air market in Europe. Outside were stalls of produce and clothing and household items and then separate buildings housed the seafood and the meat and cheese stalls. Two chunks, please. I would weigh 400 pounds if I lived in Italy. Why can't I get tomatoes like this in Amsterdam. Or a 2 foot high bunch of broccoli? There were tw...
