any suggestions for restaurants in venice, rome and tuscany

Hi 67chevy, I would like to suggest that you repost and have your Title read something along the lines of "Restaurant suggestions for Venice,Tuscany & Rome". That way you will catch the eye of people that have recommendations. Also, utilize the search box here on Fodor's..you should find lots of restaurant reviews. Best wishes.

67chevy,

personally I think you would do better to divide this into 3 separate posts.

'Suggestions for restaurants in Venice?'

'Suggestions for restaurants in Rome?'

'Suggestions' - are you getting the idea?

To ask for restaurants in 3 different places is only going to get confusing, by keeping them separate you can print the individual posts and take them with you.

Good luck!

Hi LoveItaly

posting at the same time

Hi alya, how are you? Well at least we were thinking along the same lines for chevy although I think your suggestion was better then mine. Take care!

I mention a few for Venice in my trip report:

And while your intentions may be good, 67chevy, it is kind of unfair to ask the posters to spend a lot of time giving suggestions when they have no idea what you want and you apparently haven't put in any effort to do some premliminary work. You could easily do a search here and then say "____ sounds like a great restaurant in Venice, has anyone eaten there lately or can anyone tell me how to get there?"

And frankly it is pointless for someone to sit here and go on and on explaining and offering wonderful fine dining restaurants in all those cities only to have the original poster come back and say, "oh those sound expensive, I meant something like 10euro per meal". Please tell us WHAT you are looking for and then we can help you.

Geez, 67 Chevy, bet you didn't know there were so many rules to posting your question on this board. Fodorites are very helpful, but ONLY if you word a question properly, title it the way they want you to, and don't ask stupid questions.

Stikky, you and your silly post makes me wish that in the future anyone that titles a thread "Restaurants" would be ignored.

A title "Restaurants" sure gives one a clue as to where, what kind, what price range, etc.

Many people here on Fodors take the time to click on these type of threads and then take the time to try to teach others how to get the answers to the questions they have.

Obviously you don't. In otherwords there is nothing you have contributed on this thread that would help 67chevy with his questions.

For being such a "know it all", why don't you answer his question regarding restaurants in venice,rome and tuscany.

We are all waiting for your knowledable advice.

>In otherwords there is nothing you have contributed on this thread that would help 67chevy with his questions.<

And other than posting yet another tedious scolding of a troll, you've helped the OP exactly how?

Huh, rockhopper? If you look at the second post above, you will find that LoveItaly gave the original poster great advice on how to get better answers. Does that answer your question?

rockhopper7 - isn't that a bit 'pot calling the kettle'

67chevy, try this link entitled. "Cute, Authentic Restaurants - Venice".

Oh. Yes. Excellent point. There was much more fluff than I realized.

First the How To Post instruction.

Next the mindless chatter post. Have a nice day. Here's a cookie.

And then finally the troll scolding.

Yes, but you left out one of the most interesting aspects -- the scolding of the people trying to help the poster by someone who doesn't even attempt to give any good information.

I've also had my eye on Rome eateries. Does anyone have any suggestions?

note to alya - - you didn't post a link to any thread - - that is the URL for the entire Europe forum. Not sure what thread you were trying to cite.

Best wishes,

Rex

Thanks Rex

here it is again - way down at number 106.

Oh thank goodness for the arrival of the inimitable rex. Finally someone who is really capable of taking charge of forum protocol.

Personally, I think that it was useful for Rex to post that I'd copied the wrong link - my post was after all trying to help the OP, without the correct link it was useless.

It's very nice of you to keep the post TTT for 67chevy
