Pizza! xD
I love almost any type of pasta and of course tiramusa!
Only one? But I love all Italian food. But I think I'm obligated to love all Italian food, being Italian and all.
But I do enjoy pasta of all sorts. More specifically, ravioli. Mmmm.
I LOVE Italian food. I love trying all kinds of new Italian foods, but I think that my all-time favorite will always be spaghetti!

MMMMM...Pasta Pasta Pasta. I'm a big fan of egg noodles doused in butter and covered with parmesan!
Gelato all the way baby!
Happy release!!!
Italian food.
I could live on pasta.
I love pasta! Especially with cream sauce! Yummy!

Snails obviously - hahaha - okay, I lie! I have tasted them but they didn't really do it for me. Chocolate eclairs on the other hand totally does it for me!!!!
Well, just about anything with garlic is at the top of my favorite food list which makes Italian one of my top choices. Roasted garlic and tomatoes on pizza, spaghetti sauce loaded with sauteed garlic, mmm, my taste buds are watering and it's 5 AM in the morning!
Poor French food. Clearly not the favorite so far... But all the Italian food you mention sounds delicious. Pasta rules!
I love Italian food. My favorite would probably be spaghetti though I do also love chocolate Gelato.
Calzone with homemade tomato basil sauce.
Eggplant parm....yummers
Italian all the way: calzones, lasagna, and cannoli are amazing.
my favorite italian food was what I ate in Italy last summer at a lovely little restaurant called Cafe Torino in Stresa at the Lago Maggiore. They had the best pizza's and pasta's.And I ate the most delicious Calzone, filled with tomato sauce and mozarella cheese there.And I am addicted to italian ice cream!
french food: Februari 2008 I was in Paris one day, so I had not much chance to taste the food there. I only ate one sandwich there. But let me tell you: That was the best sandwich I have ever eaten. It was at a little cafe in Le Marais, and the sandwich was called Rocket Scientist. It was big flat , very cruchy, french bread with rucola salad leaves and tomato and herbs. Nothing more. And I am also addicted to french, stick formed breads and baquettes, especially when they are warm from the oven..YUMMIEE!
Spaghetti with spicy sausages and covered with tomato sauce that has been simmering on the stove for hours, lending the house a deliciously aromatic smell that allows the aura of the meal to linger for hours more.... :)

Ya'll are making my mouth water and it's not even close to lunch time!
Marjolein, I agree with you about French breads. Super yum.
And crepes! No one has mentioned crepes. You can get them from street vendors all over Paris. With nutella and bananas. Out of this world.
Lasagne!! Oh, and Italian ice cream, mm.. :D
Sara
Lasagna, but only my mom's recipe!! Yummy. And gelato, of course.
Here's one for France-- French Bistro food is my absolute fave!! Herbed Pommes Frites with a side of mayonaise for dipping--mmmmmm!
There's an Italian place in town here that makes something called Shrimp ala Nick: It's jumbo shrimp covered with spinach, tons of melted mozzarella and red sauce - yum! OK, I'm hungry now and feeling just-the-idea-of-it fat. Happy Pub Day!
Any pasta does it for me.....
It's so hard to choose just one. I love all Italian food. Any kind of pasta and gelato are probably my favourites though
My mom's husband is Italian and his Christmas tradition is to make the dinner on Christmas! He made the best tasting lasagna this year, his recipe is from his mother!
omg
i LOVE italian food
spaghetti, ravioli, pizza, etc. etc.
sooooo yummt :)
stephanie
Oh, yummm... I am very inspired by all your food favorites. I think the family is getting lasagna for dinner tonight!
Oh!!! Delicious, mouthwatering lasagna. With rich riccotta chesse,that gives it a slightly salty taste, and the gowey melted motzzerela that strings when you pick at it. With a spinich and ground beaf filling all covered with tomato sauce. mmmm....
Pasta carbanara. Yum.
My mom makes really good lasagnia! it's delish...only problem I can't have dairy...but she made me some without cheese and YES it is still good!

MElodyJM/Is Me! Is PENGUIN!
I'm not sure what the French word for it was but it was like snail bread... it wasn't made out of snails or anything it was just yummy croissant style pastry rolled up like a snail shell. Delicious :)
Lasagna definitely :) As long as it has tons of cheese in it/on it it's delicious!
I love pasta or any kind (almost) so I don't have a specific kind that I like!
Ooh Italian food... Hmm, I suppose it's cheating if I say "anything that Jamie Oliver makes" :-) As for French food, one time on a visit to my family in Southern France, we had the most diviiiiine almond pastry for breakfast - soft and flavourfull and gooey... I've never had it's like since, anywhere!
I love pasta! and Pizza! and cheese and, of course, creme brulee.

Hm.. I love all kinds of pasta. And ravioli.
And, of course, pizza. :p
hope.
Pasta = love. Is fettucine alfredo Italian? If so, I'd say that thats my specific favorite.
I am with the pasta crowd, but for the sake of the French I'll say... I love butter and cheese. They are really into those things.
And if stranded on a desert island, I'd take a baguette and brie over most other options! Oui, oui!
Ha! Pizza. Obviously.
And pasta with meatballs!
I've never eaten French Food, for Italian a little. I guess I'll go with icecream. Pasta is great too but I have a sweet tooth : D
i think i love most italian food, any kind of pasta and rucola salad. though my fav would be pizza and gelato and then an espresso afterwards? !!
Pasta is coming out the clear winner among these suggestions. I agree! At home, my DH has a pasta maker and he does homemade pasta for our dishes. Mmmm. Love it. But not too often!
I love escargo =)
~bella aire~
I don't know much about French food but I know plenty about Italian food. I absolutely adore lasagna. I'm like Garfield in that way.

love the title to the book! :)
my favorite Italian food is spaghetti that's actually Italian (at least according to my 'gourmet cooking' teacher and then my dad who had a restaurant :p).
I use fettucini noodles because it tells me to use some number noodles they don't sell anywhere, then green and red peppers, onions, garlic, proschuito...and salt and pepper..oh and parmessan (I think that's it). It's really good because it doesn't really have a sauce so it's lighter than spaghetti as you usually think of it and everything's all sauteed-y together (I am so horrible at describing things but good at making it!).
And now I want some!!
oooo I love crepes - they're so amazing. Nutella, strawberries, bananas, whip cream? mmmm
Italian? Probably pizza. I'll have to admit that my favorite pizza is from California Pizza Kitchen, but hey, it was derived from Italy ;-)
I love Pizza!!! Especially with cheese and pineapples! :)
Here's one for france~ Roast turkey with black truffles and chestnuts. I've only had it once, but it makes thanksgiving turkeys seem bland in comparison. It is a recipe that has been in my friend's family for practically forever, and it is delicious!
