Well, I didn't miss the pasta because there's so much other food to eat! Lots of eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, salads, olives, cheese, cured meats like salami and prosciutto, chicken, fish, game. And - I might add that portions are not as large as we expect here at home. I'll tell you what, though - it was tough resisting the bread to sop up the juices on the plate.
However, I behaved. Somehow, I think the wine sort of made me forget about
the bread?
