Foodie Quine: A Fortnight of Food & Drink in Bella Italia

Did you miss me? Just got back yesterday from a fortnights holiday in Tuscany. Had a fantastic time staying at Norcenni Girasole Club. Wifi access was somewhat limited so didn't manage to blog (with the exception of a couple of pre-scheduled posts) but shared our Italian?adventures?in food on my Facebook page. If you'd like to like me there you'll keep up to date with all of my foodie blethers Foodie Quine on Facebook.?I'll be blogging in depth about various aspects of our trip in due course, but meanwhile here's a pictorial summary of what I've already shared with my Facebook likers.?

Awesome first meal in Italy

Toasting Mr Murray's Wimbledon win with Chianti and BBQ

Like a kid in a Sweetie Shop in Florence

Tortoleni stuffed with Ricotta, Parmesan and Herbs

Focaccia

Spaghetti

Gnocchi with Pesto

Lunch in Siena

Why do UK supermarkets look nothing like this?

Girl thought she'd died and gone to heaven with the Italian answer to deep fried Mars Bar. Nutella Pizza.

This is the way to drink late night coffee. With Amaretto, Baileys and Cream.

Foodie temptation

Developed a serious Ice Cream habit. I'm blaming a combination of the heat and the fact that Italian gelato can not be beaten. Favourite flavours so far have been Raspberry & Rosemary and Pink Grapefruit & Prosecco.

Pizza in Pisa.

Complete opposite in the afternoon at an?International?Wine Cellar. Lamole di Lamole

The biggest and tastiest steak ever. Steak Florentine.

Reward for many stairs climbed. Chip pizza. Even more of a food sin than Nutella Pizza?!

Sights, smells, tastes and sounds of Florence Market. The jury is still out on the Tripe Sandwiches...

The last supper in Bella Italia
