⚠️ WARNING: If you see "Alfredo" on the menu, YOU ARE IN A TOURIST TRAP! 💸🚩

⚠️ PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU SIT DOWN FOR DINNER! ⚠️

I love you guys, but we need to have "The Talk." 🍝🇮🇹 Every day, I see tourists looking at menus in Naples and getting angry or confused because they can't find their "favorite" Italian dishes.

Here is the harsh truth: The "Italian Food" you eat at home... is NOT Italian. It is American. 🇺🇸 If a restaurant in Naples has a menu with photos of spaghetti and chicken... RUN. 🏃‍♂️💨 It is a Tourist Trap designed to steal your money and serve you frozen food. ❄️🚫

Here is your "Admin Guide" to avoiding Food Crimes:

1️⃣ FETTUCCINE ALFREDO 🥛🚫 🦄 The Myth: Creamy white sauce with chicken. 🇮🇹 The Reality: It does not exist here. If you ask a waiter for "Alfredo," he might introduce you to a guy named Alfredo, but he won't bring you pasta. 🥔 Order Instead: Gnocchi alla Sorrentina. Potato dumplings baked with tomato sauce and bubbling mozzarella. It’s cheesy, it’s comforting, and it’s 100% local. 🍅🧀

2️⃣ CHICKEN PARMESAN 🐔🍝 🦄 The Myth: Breaded chicken served on top of spaghetti. 🇮🇹 The Reality: In Italy, we divorce our food. Pasta is a "Primo" (First Course). Meat is a "Secondo" (Second Course). They never meet on the same plate. 🍆 Order Instead: Parmigiana di Melanzane (Eggplant Parmesan). Trust me, it’s better than chicken. 🍆🍅

3️⃣ PEPPERONI PIZZA 🌶️🍕 🦄 The Myth: Spicy salami pizza. 🇮🇹 The Reality: "Peperoni" (with one P) means BELL PEPPERS in Italian. If you order this, you will get a vegetarian pizza! 🔥 Order Instead: Pizza Diavola (Devil’s Pizza) if you want spicy salami.

MY ADVICE: Don't come to Italy to eat what you can get at Olive Garden. Be brave. Taste the REAL Naples favorites: ✅ Spaghetti alle Vongole (Clams & Sea Breeze). 🌊 ✅ Pasta e Patate con Provola (The ultimate comfort food: pasta, potatoes, and smoked cheese mixed into a creamy masterpiece). 🥔🧀 ✅ Genovese (Onions & Beef cooked for 8 hours). 🧅 ✅ Ragù (The Sunday King of sauces). 👑

Trust me: Once you taste the real thing, you will never go back. 🤢➡️😋
