These are really hit and miss. Unless there's serious mismanagement going on, then they can continue to make money even with shitty food because Italian-American food is popular. Happens with Chinese food too.

>>11352947
Yeah true. I think the average American's pallette is used to a lot of fat and salt. I've had some good Italian before but it's at expensive restaurants in NYC. It blows paying $100+ for a meal that costs $2 to make. I mean I might as well make my own food like a big boy

I fucking hate when I want pasta for this reason. I usually just want something fairly simple, but most places like to only sell things caked in cheese like baked ziti. Also I don't know if it's basic bitches driving up the costs with their obsession for ziti or what but it's ridiculous how a bowl of noodles starts at $10 minimum. How is a reasonable price for a bowl of decent spaghetti too much

Its great to try and stay connected with your heritage, but if the extent of that is "yummy food" and worse yet you're not even cooking the meal yourself then you are just a shitty larper

Well, it is italian food we are talking about... Don't tell me you fell for the "italian food is numero 1 and far better than chinese and french" ?
How much salty and greasy was it ? Be more precise.
I frequently go to Italy and pretty much everything would fit the description of "Greasy and salty", especially in the north close to the mountains (ain't no tomato there, and the 54% napolitanes would rather die than set a foot north of Roma).

Mate. italian food isnt salty, or greasy. There's a reason italy has one of the lowest obesity rates in europe along with my home (switzerland) and its not because we cram our mouths with fatty greasy shit.

>> No.11355466

>>11355452
Nope its because people tend to eat moderate portions. You would be appalled if you came to the states and saw how much we eat and drink in one sitting. Ratio wise Italian cooking uses a fair amount of fat and salt in most of their dishes but they don't eat nearly as much as we do so it all balances out.

There is actually a lack of strong eating habits in this country,” said Pamela Damiano, a spokesperson for Slow Food – an Italian movement which seeks to protect food traditions and promote 'good, clean and fair' foods around the globe.

Criticism aside, the majority of the food and drink young Italians now consume are foreign imports, as the opening last month of a Domino's Pizza shop in Milan and the potential arrival of Starbucks indicate
The vast majority of Italians now do their shopping in massive supermarket chains and are buying lower-quality industrial products where once upon a time they bought artisanal ones.

here sweet cakes and biscuits would once have been a treat from the local baker, children now have the opportunity to eat mass-produced, chemical-packed snacks on a daily basis.

Are those noodles with condiments or not? Because that's literally what you pay in a fair enough resturant in Italy for a plate of pasta. If anything, 10$ would be super cheap.
