Artichokes lovers!

April in Italy is also a good month for food lovers, especially for those who love artichokes. 

In April several different food festivals take place in various parts of the country. 

The Italian name for artichokes is Carciofi. 

The best known artichoke food festival takes place close to Rome in Ladispoli. 

During the festival many different varieties of regional dishes 
made from artichokes are served along with local bread.

The festival takes place on second weekend of the month.
