I'm a culinary student right now, and I'm looking for food tours in Italy, I'm not sure which region yet. If anyone has been on one, or knows someone who has I would really appreciate any info/websites. I'm looking for first/second hand info because I'm not sure how reputable a lot of the websites I find are. I'm thinking maybe Tuscany or Sicily, but I'm open to any and all info!! Thanks :)

Hi, I live in Italy. Well, you can eat good food in every region of Italy...so it really isn't a problem where you go. Sicily and the Campagna Region (Naples for example) are very famous for seafood dishes and desserts......cassata sicialiana, gelato, baba, spaghetti with clams, etc. I live in the Emilia-Romagna region and the Emilia part is famous for homemade pasta.....lasagna, tortellini, tortelloni, etc. Tuscany is also famous for it's food...especially meats and soups. But like I said before, every Region has good food...in the north cities like, Venice, might seem to have not-so-good-food because they cater a lot to tourists but that's usually not typical cuisine. Hope this helps....have fun in Italy.

Although I have never been on a food tour of Italy, I have been to the country, and I must say that the Island of Capri and Florence were the best in terms of the quality of the food. The northern cities, namely Venice, were lacklustre compared to the others.
