Introduction

Welcome to Piu Piu Piu! In Italian, Piu translates to the word "More". Now you may be wondering, "Why would somebody name their food blog "More More More"? Well, I'm sure your second thought is grasping that idea; that is, in another cultural situation one cannot get enough of the novelties it has to offer, wishing to absorb it more...and more...and more for that matter. This will be a place for me to reflect in-depth on my culinary experiences, both within the confines of the city I will call home for the next 3 1/2 months (Rome) and in others I travel to across Europe and beyond. I hope to break down preconceptions I may have as well as touch on some key differences I find between the food I'm used to at home and the food I eat while abroad. Stick around and read on as I expand my horizons of taste and other elements of gastronomy through the consumption of delicious delicacies and less nutritious noshes (Yiddish for "snack")...that was for alliteration purposes.
