Italians don’t serve bologna parmigiana!
? Have you traveled through Italy much? Some of the worst examples of Italian style along with some pretty good was my experience. Never had a good pizza there.
We all have our preferences and expectations Authentic, truly authentic food of any culture is going to vary greatly dictated by what was available. Peasant foods account for the most iconic dishes of most cultures.
I, for one, like Olive Garden. Great authentic Italian? No! (Thank God) But, I'm not native Italian, I'm American. So, for Italian inspired food, I like it.
