In 2011 I launched my app, EAT ROME. At the time, it was the first English language guide in app form to eating in Italy. I since went on to expand the series to include Florence, Venice and other regions and cities. I then decided to group them all together under one umbrella app called EAT ITALY.
Over the last ten years it’s been my extreme good pleasure to eat my way up and down Italy to be able to share my favorite places with you. It’s been an incredibly successful run, and I thank each and every one of you who bought and used my app, and gave me such great feedback.
Both my life, and the restaurant scene, has changed a lot in the last decade. While I still continue to visit LOTS of restaurants, markets and other food- and drink-focused places, I don’t think the app is the best format to share my content anymore. With this in mind I have decided to retire EAT ITALY. But don’t worry! I’ll still be sharing my new discoveries on Instagram and here on my blog.
But since so much of my app is still quite useful I’ve decided to make the content available as downloadable PDF’s for all Premium subscribers of my Newsletter. You can find my newsletter here and if you are already subscribed to the free version, just sign in to upgrade.
Thank you!!!
Hi Elizabeth, will the app that we have be left online?
No, the app has been retired. That means it the software is no longer updated, so it is no longer in the app store. If you have it downloaded to a current device, it will live there until the next update of your device.
I am sorry to see this app go. I have used the Florence portion every time I have visited. So many great recommendations!
It’s still available as a PDF for subscribers of my Premium Newsletter!
I don’t seem to be able to download the .pdf – unless, of course, I downloaded it a million times and can’t find it! Have you heard of this happening?
Did you check where your downloads go? Or check on your download history/file?
Unfortunately, PDFs aren’t nearly as helpful “in the moment” of choosing where to eat. I really don’t want to scroll through a 43 page document to find a place close to me to eat in Rome. 🙁 I haven’t used the Eat Italy app, but it came HIGHLY recommended from a friend and I’m sad that it’s no longer available.
Yes, I know a PDF isn’t as helpful as an app. But the choice was either have the information available as a PDF, or else not have it available at all. I chose to at least make the content available. This way you can have my recommendations before you make your trip, and perhaps it can help you make some plans. In other words, it’s better than nothing.
