What makes good Italian food and a great Italian restaurant? This just what I think.
Italy has a wonderful tradition of fine food. Italian food’s importance to Italian culture can’t be overstated. It is on the list of central elements, and why shouldn’t it be? Think about Italy’s geography for a second:
It runs a long way from north to south. Therefore, offers wide array of growing seasons and soil types. This means a rich diversity of ingredients for food.
It is a peninsula, meaning can nearly surrounded in the sea but also connected to the great Eurasian land bulk. There is an abundance of fresh seafood and foreign ingredients from neighboring lands.
It sits between Europe and Africa in the Mediterranean sea. All Mediterranean cultures have excellent food traditions from North Africa to Lebanon and Israel, France, Greece, Spain and, of course, The country of italy.
When you involving noodles and pasta, you probably think of Italy, but those wonderful inventions located Italy from China thanks to Marco Polo. It reveals a lot about Italian food culture that something so basic became related to Italy even though it did not originate there.
Anyway, food is often a key element of Italian culture. Therefore, the food is easily important part of this restaurant. Of course, a great Italian restaurant will possess a great wine list, a clean and chic decor, and wonderful service, but a first rate Italian restaurant are certain to get by on great food alone, despite the fact that they have a crummy wine list, poor service, including a dingy decoration scheme.
By the way, if you leave an “Italian” restaurant hungry, it’s far from authentic. A white tablecloth and high bill do rather than a great bistro ensure. Frankly, I can’t stand those fancy Italian restaurants in Manhattan that charge a fee $400 for a morsel that gives you want to stop for a slice of pizza on the way home. A great Italian ristorante will leave you full, not stuffed, but full.
The second aspect of a great Italian restaurant is 200 dollars per month. The service will be warm and professional, but not overly friendly. Recognized orders are taken and the meal gets rolling, true should be nearly invisible. Run — don’t walk — from any Italian restaurant where the waitperson address the table like this:
“How you guys doin’ tonight?” when ladies are seated at the table. This is most un-Italian of such. An Italian would never call girls “guy.” In spaghetti-and-meatballs-type places, the waiter might say, “How is everyone for dinner?” The won’t tarry with small talk in the white-tablecloth places, not you’ll be able to ones, in the wild. It is all about the meal at the same time comfort.
The third aspect in regards to a great Italian restaurant may be the ambiance. I don’t know what it is, but Italians could be seen as able to have a wonderful atmosphere anywhere. I have eaten at places in strip malls in the suburbs of Denver — as un-romantic a setting as have to — that come close to great. An actually outstanding Italian restaurant will just have a certain feeling from as soon as you walk in the door, a warmth and maybe a glow that can’t actually be described.
So the priorities are food first, service second, and a ambiance 3. If all three are met, you say that a great Italian small business.
