Spent 8 days in Sorrento in April 2024. Had dinner at that restaurant the first night. Couldn’t agree more with your comments about food in Italy and Sorrento. Didn’t want to leave.
@@lauriekeikkala9937 We picked April as it’s still low season. So rates for lodging reflected this season. Weather was perfect-sunny and warm. Cool in the evenings. Sorrento does attract a lot of US tourists, but the crowds were not overwhelming as in Almalfi or Capri. Easy to walk around, find places to eat or shop. I found it a great location for day trips and it was always enjoyable to return to at the end of the day.
I’ve actually collected lava gravel that they spread when the roads are icy… (In the U.S.) I use it in my potting soil… My tomato & basil plants thrive in it!
Isn’t it just amazing?? And I love that they realize the beauty and “value” of their historic architecture and preserve it so well… I didn’t see a single “ strip mall” anywhere!! LOL!!
We spent 10 days in sorrento in 2017. When you travel from New Zealand you have to make the most of your stays. We ate at this restaurant. The good was fabulous and I'm still licking my lips from my cup of hot chocolate. Viva Italia.
@@LetsGoWithMichaelPetry-ln8fl it was the dessert display that caught my eye and decided we would eat there. No regrets about that decision! I love Italy, the people and the food.
@@LetsGoWithMichaelPetry-ln8fl honestly the simplest ones..aglio e olio that I had in Florence at Osteria Santo Spirito, the pizza that I had in Rome at Il Colibri, the gelato I had near the Spanish steps and everywhere else. You cannot eat a bad meal in Italy, period. (Sorrento is on the list to visit next spring)
@@sueannesorrentino8430 Wow!! All wonderfully iconic experiences! I hope you took a lot of pictures! 😀 Thank you so much for sharing! And when you’re in Sorrento, be sure to say hello to those peeps at Pizzeria Aurora. They are such friendly and beautiful people! Honestly, I don’t even know if they know that this video exists.
I love Sorrento and will try this pizzeria. In fact, I am in love with Italy. As a solo traveller, I really enjoy every bit of the time I spend discovering beautiful parts of Italy and, of course, the food, scenery, and ambience . Thank you for sharing 😊
Sorry, if you think food in the U.S. is good on average, then you are truly clueless. Industrially farmed/grown ingredients (meat/veggies/grains) are substandard when compared to the rest of the world. Americans mostly care about food cost, but not food quality.
Yes… I am probably clueless as you say… But I do find it interesting that a large portion (more than 50%) of the Arizona (USA) wheat harvest is exported to buyers in Italy. www.azfb.org/Article/Fun-Facts-about-Arizonas-Desert-Durum#:~:text=9.,10.
@MMathis-cu7ew I don't disagree. In the U.S., you have to SEARCH for high quality food or grow it yourself. And it's often more expensive than the equivalent in other countries. I'm talking about the baseline/average quality.
Hi, how are you!!! Thank you for the compliment! I’ve been working in the television industry for years… I guess I picked-up a few pointer along the way… Do you have a channel??
@@LetsGoWithMichaelPetry-ln8fl yeah I have a channel too , but I am a newbie but I liked your content,videography everything I will try to improve by watching your videos😄
LOL!! Agreed!!!! and thank you for the compliment!! And yes, I do have an Instagram page but I haven’t posted anything on it yet… I know, I can be a slacker sometimes… Have you been to Rome?
Not yet, but hopefully one day… What’s your IG pseudo or name so that I can follow you, ( in case you decide to finally post something). P.S: About Sorrento, have you seen Wilder’s movie « Avanti! » The hotel -in the movie- is supposed to be on the island of Ischia bit, in fact, the Excelsior in Sorrento ( the trickery of cinema ;-)
Pizza in communist USA stinks even Chicago and New York Glad we just went to Sorrento no people the women were dressed appropriately not all slutty looking wear yoga pants with the special crack up the butt! That is way too many people!
Five years ago, celebrating Our 15th anniversary, we renewed our Vows and Honeymooned in Tuscany. Tuscany was 100 percent my wife's idea as I felt It was for girls living out a bad dream. How wrong was I? Wow, I loved it. She had booked us in a small Airbnb near an old town. Driving through the countryside I was in love with the area before we even reached our Airbnb. Everymorning I walked into town down old Roman era roads to a little Cafe where the owner who didn't speak a word of English would sing Italian arias while serving customers. We attended Sunday Service in an old Catholic church whose cornerstone was laid in 700 AD. I hope you finally made it to Florence because that is a treat all on it's own.
O-M-G!!!! I love that, Brian!!! The old “Roman era” road… The 700 year old corner-stone… It sounds like you truly “get” what makes it so incredible… And, like me, thinking it was just a “girl fad” thing… Boy were we wrong! LOL!! And yes, we made it to Florence… I went mainly to quench my interest of the Medici family… But found so much more. It’s a video we have yet to piece together… Thank you for your note, Brian! Loved it!! Hope we chat again!
Hey Mike Im a guy who handles marketing like SEM and keyword strategy, let me know if i can get with you to share a proposal. Hopefully we can get your channel the views it deserves
Hey, thanks for reaching out... No, I'm still experimenting around with it... I also have some help in that department... Seems to be working at this point.. But thank you anyways!
Perfection! Absolutely stunning! You made me laugh with the White Lotus comment and who knew you spoke cow?! Farm boy as you say! Shelli is so beautiful dancing to the sunset and that next morning footage...wowza! I agree it looks like the heavens to me! This piece is everything, from start to finish! Bravo! I want to go there!
