A report by British online market company YouGov pointed out that Italian cuisine is the most popular delicacy in the world; and the "National Geographic Magazine" also reported several years ago that one in eight American restaurants sell Italian cuisine. YouGov pointed out that people in the United States and other countries are considered to have committed many "crimes" against their food, from eating Italian noodles with garlic bread to sprinkling cheese on seafood noodles. The food website Daily Meal visited cooking experts, and here are the dishes they recommend to avoid ordering when they are looking for Italian restaurants.

1. Simple ingredients such as Maglita

Tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and Roller make this pie very popular, which also means that the production cost is super low. The chef Julia Helton said it would cost at least 12 yuan to eat a dish made of 1 yuan, which is not cost-effective. She suggested choosing the pizza that is more refined or best highlighted by charcoal grilled flavor.

2. Shrimp scampi

The biggest difference between almost every Italian restaurant in the United States and in Italy is the amount of garlic. American restaurants use too much garlic, which leads to overflowing other ingredients, especially the light-tasting seafood. Barbara Pollastrini said that it is better to use virgin olive oil, parsley, high-quality white wine, salt and pepper than baking garlic.

3. Mozarella Cheese

host Sedona Kusler said that most restaurants only buy cold mozarella cheese and then put them in the oil pot, and he doesn't want to pay for food that can be fried at home. He also complained that mozzarella cheese and other oily fried dishes made Italian dishes obese and unhealthy.

Palmason cheese grilled chicken steak: New York Times reported that this was created by Italian immigrants from the 20th century. Although his history is short, it has become a mainstream dish in the United States and has even appeared on many wineries in Australia. Restaurant owner Michael DeLone said that although many customers want to order this dish, he wants to provide more authentic, creative and more basic Italian cuisine.

4. Meat sauce Noodles

Although this is the basic American Italian cuisine, as the chef Aleka Shuunk claims, it is not difficult to cook by yourself, and the difference may be minimal; more importantly, the cost of eating at a restaurant is much higher than that of making yourself.

5. White sauce chicken noodles

Butter white sauce noodles (fettuccine all 'Alfredo) are authentic Italian dishes. Unfortunately, in the first half of the 20th century, many important ingredients for making Italian noodles cannot be bought in the United States. People use alternatives such as cream and celery, and even add chicken. David Kirschner said that the chickens are usually thinly cut and tastes much more when cooked, which is almost disappointing.

6. Caprese salad

This is the perfect combination of tomato slices, mozzarella cheese, role and olive oil, and is also a simple delicacy; however, its most flavor is ripe, delicious and authentic beef tomatoes. Natale Servino said that many restaurants overlook this and appear on menus throughout the year, but beef and tomatoes lose their flavor after season; therefore, this dish can be ordered in the summer and skipped in the winter.

7. Caesar Salad

The BBC once reported that the famous Caesar Salad was invented by the Italians named Caesar Cardini on the American Independence Day in 1924, and was not well received in the United States until the 1940s. The reason this dish has never been accepted by Italian chefs is that traditional salads are served after the main course to cleanse the taste buds and help digestion; while a pile of kesa salads filled with cheese and chicken are absolutely light-tasting and have no place in Italian cuisine.
