The bread they bring you is free (I never had to pay for it) but never ever ever use it to "mop up" the sauce on your plate, it's really not a thing you do in a restaurant. We in Italy call it scarpetta but it's something you do in the privacy of your own home. The bread is there to eat with your meal.
That's exactly what I Was going to write! Btw if you're looking for something to watch, I have a channel with videos from London, and also starting series about Italy if you want to check it out:)
In molti ristoranti anche stellati il pane serve SOLO per la scarpetta, la cosa che "è inelegante e non si fa" e molto anni 90 se lo fai ora e non vivi in un paese di snobbettini del cazzo nessuno ti guarderà male
Looooooove love it love love iiiit! These tips r REALLY good giiiirl!!!! I don’t know but how could i have gone without knowing any of this ? Hahaha awnnnn I’m loving these!!! Italy, here i come !
the bread things it's false. COPERTO it a fee (usually 2euro) that include bread and everything and is not a tip for the waiters. if you don't want bread you still have to pay COPERTO. About tipping, it's up to you. if you go on a fancy restaurant you maybe should tip like 5/10% of the bill. if you are young and broke and you don't tip it's ok, if you are a family and your bill it's 100 euros, for example, you can tip 5 or 10 euros. the waiter will appreciate.
I’m from America, but going to Italy with my school. I’ve never been out of the country, but I know when you travel other places you shouldn’t drink their water because your body isn’t used to it, so should I just not get water while I’m there?
Happy that you enjoyed it! What did you find the most useful? Btw if you're looking for something to watch, I have a channel with videos from London, and also starting series about Italy if you want to check it out :)

there's no tap water in the restaurant, but you can ask a glass of tap water in a bar. if you drink your own water in a restaurant it's kinda rude.
