Yeah! this is very Italian! Oh, and does anybody here use to clear his sauce spotted dish with a piece of bread when they are finished eating pasta? [/b]Of course we clean our plates with bread! So clean that I just put the dish away when I'm done.
I digress....Lavi, do restaurants in Italy put a small dish or bowl to pour olive oil into for dunking bread? I don't remember from my trip there.
