Italian menu cheat sheet
 

A few years ago while doing a search for our Italy trip, I found a site that was extremely helpful to us but have lost it. The site listed common restaurant items in Italian with English translation. Does anyone know where I can find a site that offers the same thing? InItaly.com offers something similar but isn't as extensive as the one I had found.

Jennie:

Try this website:
http://italian.about.com/library/fare/blfareindex02.htm

It has lots of rstaurent and food items and also if you have speakers in your PC, the correct Italian pronunciation.

Another one is:
http://www.acena.it/dizionario.html

You might also be interested in a book "Not Just a Salad" by Cheryl Sindell...gives translations in several languages (including Italian). Might try to order it from her website--CherylSindell.com.

slowtrav.com has actual menus from real ristorantes rather than just vocab.
