Italy Food by Blue Guides 3.1.1

The Blue Guides Italy Food App offers a comprehensive dictionary and assortment of Italian food and beverage terms commonly encountered on menus or in markets. The app is designed for easy browsing and convenient on-site use, functioning offline to avoid costly roaming charges or download delays. Its full searchability and indexing allow for instant access to the desired information, while each entry includes a sound file for immediate pronunciation guidance.

Available in both a free version, limited to approximately 500 words, and a premium version with 2,500+ words, users can first explore the functionality and user-friendliness of the free app before considering an upgrade to the complete edition through a simple in-app purchase.

Derived from the content of the Blue Guide Italy Food Companion, titled as a “Phrasebook & Miscellany,” the app not only serves as a helpful dictionary but also provides contextual background, facts, and guidance. This may include insights on food seasonality, historical origins, classical references, or regional delicacies—all of which are conveniently accessible via the app. The book version is available at reputable bookstores for £6.99 / $10.95.
