* About the Authors *
Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls are the authors of twenty-six Cadogan Guides covering every town and region of Italy; in 2018 they published the detailed Bradt Northern Italy: Emilia-Romagna guide and in 2019, their Bradt guide to Friuli Venezia Giulia was the first in English to the region; currently they are working on the Bradt guide to Umbria and Le Marche. They started back in 1986, bringing up their children in a tiny Umbrian village while exploring the country. Italy soon had its way with them, turning them (and the children) into hopeless, unrepentant foodies. In their travels, they always enjoyed taking notes on regional specialities and obscure delights, and these became the basis of this app.

Italian Food Decoder Pros
✓ Keep the menu APPs coming!We recently bought this APP in preparation for our next trip to Italy. I only wish we had had it during our last trip, where we visited many small villages and often had no idea of what we were ordering - as the locals only spoke Italian and our knowledge of the language, as well as our Italian/English dictionary, were of little use. We have been enjoying the APP's lively and informative text, beautiful pictures and all of the extras (such as the 5 minute grammar lesson!) - while dreaming about all of the delicacies that await us. This book is a treasure for anyone who loves Italian food. And being the foodies that we are - we hope that the authors write a food APP for France and Spain soon!.Version: 2.0
✓ Now I know what affogato is!I love Italian food. I love Italy. I even love Italians. But every time I visit I end up ordering the same, small selection of things I know how to pronounce. Spa-ghe-tee. This menu decoder opened up a whole new world of Italian cuisine! It's got easy to use navigation to food types, regions and specific dishes. The history of phrases and foods is great - guess where "puttanesca" comes from. Overall, very well-written, helpful and fun..Version: 2.0
✓ Italian Food Decoder Positive ReviewsItalian Food Decoder Cons
✗ Awkward divisions, navigationThe overall info seems OK, and it's good that the authors keep up a running dialog in the Comment, and the pictures are often useful. But I very much dislike that vocabulary is strewn between various sections, forcing the reader to root around (is is under General? Restaurant Words? Bar Words? Cheese Words? I also find some of the navigation awkward, what with the General vocabulary split into 4 sections and some of the linked items leading to peculiar results (e.g. the link from 'all'amatriciana' leading to 'in bianco,' and a somewhat cryptic remark about sauces without tomato in them—whereas the name for an 'amatriciana' made without tomato sauce is alla gricia, which ought to be linked there but is not). Some of the choices for vocabulary entry are mysterious. E.g., alla gricia is found under gricia, but all'amatriciana is found under all', and alla milanese is found under alla, not milanese. Peculiar. So, good idea, needs work..Version: 1.0
✗ Italian Food DecoderTerrible. Crashes upon opening. I have sent three emails to their support and have yet to receive a reply much less a solution. Finally received a return email giving me suggestions I had already tried. They did contact me again and gave me a refund, but no fix..Version: 2.0.1
