Italian Restaurants Locations Locator Map and Directory

      Italian cuisine as a national cuisine known today has evolved through centuries of social and political changes, with its roots traced back to 4th century BC. (from Wikipedia.com) Some of the more popular Italian dishes are pasta based: ravioli, rigatoni, ziti, farfelle, as well as many others. Since most of Italy is coastal, fish (pesci) is a huge staple for Italians. Vegetables are often roasted and covered with olive oil and spices. Lamb, chicken and beef are also part of the Italian diet, with rotisserie chicken gaining in popularity here in the United States.
