Many of us realize that we pay a lot more in restaurants for food that we could cook at home for much less.
But we go to such establishments for completely different emotions.
But the prices for some of the dishes seem absolutely ridiculous considering how much was spent on the ingredients.
Let's see which dishes in an Italian restaurant are best not to overpay for.
Pizza Margherita, according to critics, is unjustifiably expensive, as it consists of mozzarella, sauce and a few basil leaves on a piece of dough.
It is better to order pizza prepared with several toppings, which was heated in a stone oven.
Another dish is Caprese salad, which consists of tomatoes, mozzarella, basil and olive oil.
Skip the garlic croutons, as the flavor of the bread is masked by the butter and garlic. Spaghetti Bolognese is also best made at home.
