Siðir og menning
“In Rome like the Romans”
Italians- drink caffe latte or cappuccino only at breakfast - stay indoors from 12.00 till 17.00 in the warmest season - always use the name or signore/Signora/ Signora when addressing someone - drink, but aren’t drunk! - greet the shopkeeper both entering and exiting the shop - only use grated cheese with pasta and tomato sauce, not with cream based sauces - have extremely local kitchens ( no bolognese or carbonara on the menu in Puglia!) -
