Elizabeth -

I also bought your apps and they are equally informative!! So, thank you too! I was wondering if I could ask you a couple of other questions -- first, we booked Glass for our last night in Italy , thoughts in comparison to the others you mentioned? Secondly, have you been to La Petraia in Tuscany? http://lapetraia.com/ We are going there for the day from Florence - and I was wondering if you had any thoughts --

thanks!

I made a reservation Pipero al Rex! I can't wait - Katie, I also bought Rome for Foodies -- thank you for the amazing resource!

i have read threads about the amalfi coast - but I was most interested in good dinner spots in sorrento and capri that are reasonable - I've read that Capri can be pretty pricey.

Hi!

My husband and I are going to the Amalfi coast in July and we would love some suggestions for dinner and lunch places that do not cost an arm and a leg - that said we are really looking for value. Good food for the right price.

Also - do I need reservations for July and if so how far in advance do I need to make these reservations.

thanks!

Thanks for your input -- and your right. I actually picked these restaurants by reading blogs and chowhound posts - but I really wanted some opinions about which one of these wow'ed people. I posted a couple of days ago explaining that we were looking for a restaurant that had creative flavors and presentation but was still more "This is delicious" than "This is beautiful" - unfortunately no one replied to that post - so I tried something more specific.

Your descriptions of "fancy" vs. "youthful and casual" help - I think we are more into the latter - but at the end of the day we want great food - so given your choice of these or anything that was 100E or less a person what would you pick if the focus was great and exciting food?

thanks again.

Hiya Chowhound -

I was wondering which restaurant should we go to for our anniversary in Rome?

1. Pipero al rex
2. All'oro
3. Metamofosi
4. Antico Arco

or maybe you'd suggest something else???

Thanks!!!

Hello Chowhound!

My husband and I are going to Italy for our anniversary and I would love to ask your opinions on three things...

1. What restaurant would you go to for our anniversary dinner - we are thinking a degustation menu that is 90E or less - we would love romance - but really this is about food - great, inventive flavors - beautiful plating - the gourmet experience - the kind of meal that requires a lot of - yum sounds and wows.

2. We will also be in Venice, Sorrento, Florence, and Capri - and we would love one more night of gourmet experience in any one of these cities - similar price - suggestions?

3. Finally, any great cheap eats in Rome, Venice, Florence or Sorrento would also be greatly appriciated!

Thank you in advance for your advice!
