The biggest problem of any restaurant that aspires to offer true Italian cuisine, wherever it is in the world, is that they always choose to adapt to local tastes rather than do a work of culinary culture. Every type of cuisine must be understood in order to be appreciated, it is necessary to educate the palat if you really want to explore and enjoy food. There is a reason why pasta has to be cooked al dente or why less seasoning is better, why a fried food has not to be covered with sauce, etc. In the same way we should talk about raw materials and how an alchemy is used to get the best out of each one. Culture, story and education. Without this approach you will never find a superb Italian or Spanish or Japanese or Turkish or any other country restaurant.

My family is Japanese. I had the same reaction to seeing, "Oysters Motoyaki, " on menus here, as you had when you found the Chicken parm. haha

It reminds me the only time I've been in the USA. I was in Chicago and so many people told me I had to try the deep dish pizza. I found it bettr than expected, it just isn't pizza. I think it is more similar to a quiche
P.S. io ogni tanto le penne alla vodka me le cucino, e anche in Italia ci sono posti che ti danno 150 g di pasta

Per quanto riguarda carne impanata con formaggio sopra c'è la cotoletta alla bolognese. Simile alla Milanese, ma poi viene messo del parmigiano e del prosciutto sopra e inumidita con un po' di brodo e messa in forno per far sciogliere il formaggio. Qualcuno mette anche una spruzzata di concentrato di pomodoro.

...riflettendo sulla"chicken parmigiana"sembra quasi la fusione fra un cordon bleu e un piatto"di recupero"...va anche detto che il cibo del sud(ovvero della maggior parte degli immigrati degli anni 40-50)è molto più ricca e"pesante"che nel resto di italia quindi ci sta che col tempo e l'adattamento al gusto locale, siano uscite fuori cose 1po"esagerate".Anche le porzioni al sud sono più abbondanti(vedo la differenza nella mia famiglia mezza toscana e mezza campana)..e certamente incontrare quelle xl americane è stato il"colpo di grazia"😅

I'm from southern Italy (PUGLIA) and the word "braciola" indicate a little meat roll, cooked into the tomato sauce. Usually, the roll has inside ham (or Mortadella), Parmigiano and Parsley.
It's a typical dish on Sunday launch.

If you are interested in trying a really unique take on Italian-American cuisine try Italian-Cajun fusion. Its a little known fact, but the first American city to have a large Italian immigrant population was New Orleans and people there found that Italian food blended well with Cajun ingredients and spices.

This reminds me of the first time you had Spaghetti & Meatballs with me 😅

As an Italian American who has been living in Florence for 6 months now I have to be honest that I am a little conflicted. I love the food here and experiencing REAL Italian food. However, the American in me is missing some chicken parm!!! LOL Thanks for the fun video! Paul in Firenze

[enricopagani]

It's nice that Italian Americans are so well integrated in America that they adapt the flavor to American preferences, but inevitably the true tradition of Italian cuisine has been lost. This is normal. For example, I'd like to know what Brazilians think of their restaurants in Italy. ;-) ;-)
Very interesting video.

Two of my favorite authentic italian restaurants in NY are San Carlo Osteria Piemonte and Noodle Pudding (owners from Ischia). I can confidently say I’d be glad never to see chicken parm again LOL the official food of brooklyn catering halls

All ethnic groups modify their cuisines in the U.S. from their native countries. That's not necessarily a bad thing. New York pizza was derived from Neapolitan pizza. New York pizza is it's own unique style and is known around the world.
BTW, next time go to Dominick's restaurant on Arthur Avenue if you want an excellent meal.

It always takes an European to remind me how crazy my country is. Keeps me grounded. 🇺🇸

[markliu]

I enjoyed watching your reactions...I have the same feelings towards Chinese-American food compared to Chinese food. Completely different animals!

[ralphm]

Holy macaroni! Your Italian cultural comparison vids have always been my favorite. 😀

[tichtran]

Try fried ravioli and mozzarella sticks. Which ironically exist in Italy as ravioli fritti and mozzarella fritti.

[Plata-ori-plumbu]

I wouldn't blame Italian Americans. Aside from pepperoni sausage and maybe a few others, most of the "Italian" food here in USA was invented by Americans, not Italians. And for sure NO Italian invented putting pineapples on pizza!
Also, "Mexican" food in the USA is almost 100% American 'Tex-Mex', completely different than real Mexican food. I go out and enjoy both knowing full-well I'm eating lies. :D

[saviourly]

you are the first person on youtube who I've seen eat food and not said, "OH MY GOD ITS GOOD!!" and then have a "shocked" expression on your face. Your make it feel like I'm watching real person try some new food, and not someone acting for a camera. Bravo! You've gained a new sub!

I'm an American living in italy for the last 30 years your so right!! No where else do you eat as good as in italy 🇮🇹😍👍

I’m from Hong Kong (English is my second language ) and now learning Italian after studying abroad. Although the aim of your video is trying to speak English for gli italiani, I find your Italian subtitles very useful for me to familiarise myself with Italian vocabulary using in daily life! Grazie mille, and please keep uploading! Wish you all the best ❤️
