Jesus, that's a tough decision to make. Venice swings it towards Veneto but could have happily picked Lombardy or Tuscany. Calabria's great as well.

My Mother's side of the family has deep links with Bracciano near Rome, so gotta represent LAZIO..

going to puglia for the first time next week, looking fwd to it

― just sayin, Wednesday, 9 January 2013 14:38 (thirteen years ago)

Abruzzi, Molise and Basilicata are entirely unknown to me

― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 9 January 2013 15:33 (thirteen years ago)

Abruzzo was where the seismologists were jailed for predicting there wouldn't be an earthquake, iirc. Pescara is meant to be quite nice.

Emilia-Romagna on a Parma-based whim

I was thinking the same. Lovely town, great nosh. Bologna's there too.

― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 9 January 2013 15:49 (thirteen years ago)

and Modena, and loads of Renaissance city-state wars history stuff

also Parma in the Brolin-Baggio-Asprilla era is my fave Fifa Football team ever

I'm married to an Italian and go there on avg 4 X a year but I had never heard of the Molise region - how weird

I let this sink in overnight and it turns out the answer is Sicily

― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 10 January 2013 09:30 (thirteen years ago)

Molise is definitely under the radar. I work with some people in Campobasso but always assumed it was in Puglia for some reason.

Lombardy, love the lakes

― Euler, Thursday, 10 January 2013 13:16 (thirteen years ago)

in Emilia Romagna, the pig is king

― Ismael Klata, Monday, 14 January 2013 07:35 (thirteen years ago)

puglia

― buzza, Monday, 14 January 2013 07:39 (thirteen years ago)

Abruzzi for me but there's personal connections is why.

― Una Stubbs' Tears (Trayce), Monday, 14 January 2013 08:33 (thirteen years ago)

Never been there (that will change soon hopefully) but voted for where my family is from: Calabria

― things that are jokes pretty much (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Friday, 18 January 2013 00:02 (thirteen years ago)

lol indeed - and sorry but these results are whack - 3 votes for Lombardia and none for Toscany?

― licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Friday, 18 January 2013 12:38 (thirteen years ago)

Tuscany would have been my second choice, tbf but Lombardy is pretty great too. Milan, Como, the mountains, etc.

― Tullamorte Tullamore (ShariVari), Friday, 18 January 2013 12:54 (thirteen years ago)

Tuscany tainted by association with the chiantiista set

― non-elitist melted poo (Noodle Vague), Friday, 18 January 2013 12:56 (thirteen years ago)

yeah i know - not exactly hip to pick Tuscany but still. My wife is from Tuscany so that's the part I know best, but if I wanted to pick anothre region I would go for EMilia Romagna, which has some of my favorite cities (eg Ravenna, Ferrara, and Bologna ain't too shabby either)
