A few years ago I was working in Rome and discovered that a grilled vegetable panino is a wonderful option for vegetarians who travel in Italy.
Here is a link to my story about working in Rome: http://www.madeinitalymall.com/blog/working-in-italy-lunch-time-options

“Love and Understand the Italians” by One Day in Italy
“Remember that it’s only by going off the track that you get to know the country…And don’t, let me beg you, go with that awful tourist idea that Italy’s only a museum of antiquities and art. Love and understand the Italians, for the people are more marvelous than the land.”
— E.M. Forster”

Confederations Cup: Italy beat Mexico 2:1

Italy played very well in their Brazil 2013 opener at the Maracanã stadium, coming away with a win over Mexico. Andrea Pirlo and Mario Balotelli scored the one-two punch that knocked out Mexico. The lone Mexican goal was scored on a penalty play by Mexico’s famous “Chicarito” (Javier Hernandez) who plays for Manchester United.
Here is an article with more details about the game:

Share article: Bianchetti - highly treasured truffles from Italy
(Photo from Wikimedia commons of White Truffle contributed by Lucarelli)
Bianchetti, or White Spring Truffles, are one of Italy’s treasures. According to the article in Wikipedia on the subject, Italian white truffles are very highly esteemed and are the most valuable on the market: The white truffle market in Alba is busiest in the months of October and November when the Fiera del Tartufo (truffle fair) takes place.
I recently read an article about the search for White Spring Truffles in the tiny medieval village of Mercatello sur Metauro and I thought I would share the article with our readers:
