The recent food posts by ninetytworules has opened my eyes to a whole new world. Lol. I’m literally trying to convince my wife to go to Italy for our upcoming 10 year anniversary because of this! Looks amazing. 

Head up to the Dolomites if you do!
Typical "Italian" food gets all the attention but we found the Austro-Hungarian influenced fare to be more interesting.  The flavor profiles and choices were MUCH more diverse.  German style bread and wines may be the most underrated European delights.
Plus the scenery absolutely destroys anything south of Trento and the town's are far less touristy.

I ate one of the best meals of my life in Bolzano: home made gnocchi with crab meat and red sauce along with some local red wine.

Inspired by some of your dope looking pies from Italia. Pizza night at mine in Brooklyn. Sausies and Shrooms on the first and all the veggies on the 2nd. Not too shabby!

Beauties !!

don’t know about the northern italian, but I had a buddy in vegas who had been a sous chef at caesars palace and later cooked at a “real” italian place in a strip mall. the sauces were much more brown than red. food was incredible. funny, tho, one night we capped off all the italian food with shots of ouzo.

Ahhh Bolzano, a dagger in my heart to think of it lol 
How I wish to live there.
One of our best meals too, she had vegetable dumplings and soup and I had Marende, a platter of all local Alto Adige Speck PGI, hay cheese, good German bread and red wine.
Amazing.

What did you do in Bolzano?  We went up through Nova Levante up to Carezza/Karerpass and hiked around.  Stayed at the Hotel Alpenrose on a whim and had the best time of our lives.

We were staying in innsbruck for the week (snowboarding throughout austria) and decided to take a day trip down into italy.  I'd go back there in a second.  We did a bunch of hiking in austria and germany but not in italy.

Innsbruck!!! Another dagger lol

Have you ever seen me talk about the Innsbrucker Kletterstieg climb on the boards?  I know I have before.  The high point of my life, pun intended lol

Those Austrian Alps are just... unbelievable.

I don't have any better ones haha.
Don't know if I ever will.

Just wish I'd had the balls to stand up and let go of the tether lol
It was early in the climb, by the end of the day I wasn't bothering to tether because the fear was gone.
