For these dishes, yes. But honestly, when I’m in Italy—and I’ve explored more than just one city: Sardinia, Capri, Lake Como, Portofino, Cinque Terre, Santa Margherita Ligure, the Amalfi Coast, Venice, Florence and Chianti in Tuscany, Rome, the Dolomites, Ischia, Milan, Verona, Sicily (Taormina and Cefalù), Elba Island, Puglia (Polignano a Mare and Ostuni), Orvieto— If I just walk into a random restaurant (not necessarily Michelin) 99% of the time, when I order a steak, it’s not cooked well. Italians certainly excel at Italian cuisine, but other types of food don’t always reach the same level (in my opinion).
