Alberto over at Il Forno just wrote up a great report on Italy and the food blogs written in Italian, by both natives and foreigners. The links are great and my favorite of the bunch has to be the anonimous stories from kitchenstories or the writings of Cenzina at Cavoletto di Bruxelles (Brussel Sprout in Italian).
Although these sites are in Italian, the second, of Cenzina has great photos and is somewhat easier to understand of the two.
The first, kitchenstories, is really the rants and waves of running a kitchen. The writer is trully anonimous but mentions that the restaurant is in the North. Thanks...that really helps!
The post I liked most recently went on about a chef's refrigerator and how the only thing normally in it is beer, vodka and orange juice.
Sure, I also had my time where that really was the only thing in the box, but in the freezer there were always frozen bagel pizzas and some good ice cream.
Thanks Alberto for the links!
