Here Are The 5 Best Italian Restaurants In Florida
I love Italian food and if you do too, you have come to the right article! “Here are the 5 best Italian restaurants in Florida.” 3 of the restaurants on this list are near where I live in St. Petersburg. Any ideas? I won’t tell you just yet, but you will find out below.
What Is Your Favorite Italian Dish?
Ok, So I have a couple of favorites. For one, I do love Pizza, but it has to be authentic! I also love any type of white sauce pasta. The chicken alfredo dish is one of my favorites. Am I sounding basic right now? If so feel free to email me better Italian options. You can reach me Babs@wild941.com
You know what I have always wanted to do? Remember when Serena Williams told her husband that she wanted Italian food, and then they flew to Venice? I would love to be able to do that as well. Could you imagine? How much does something like that cost? When you have millions it does not matter, right?
Ok so I prefer 100% authentic but I do eat at Americanized Italian restaurants often. I love Olive Garden and Carrabba’s! The chicken alfredo from both of these restaurants is everything. I also love the breadsticks and salads from Olive Garden.
