We had 4th of July dinner with friends last night. Every year, American chef Jennifer Mcilvaine creates an American Cheeseburger from ground Chianina beef at her restaurant, Basiliko’, in the center of Foligno. The clientele was exclusively Italian and in addition singing rousing renditions of “American the Beautiful” and “God Bless America”, we coached them on how to eat a hamburger (put down the knife and fork).
