1. You'd probably be better off asking this in the Travel or Food & Drink section, as opposed to the Etiquette section.
2. Many or even most restaurants in Italy are family-owned; walk a little off the main tourist streets in Rome and Sorrento and you'll find something fabulous. Most of the pasta is the same between USA & Italy, though they tend to serve more fresh or home-mad pasta in Italy (same taste, but often has irregular shapes from being hand-cut). Sauces vary considerably, but I've never had a bad meal in Italy! Risotto is more common than I've seen in the States. And yes, you're likely to have less fat and sugar in a normal meal, becuase they use more fresh ingredients. Gelatto, however, will offer plenty of fat & sugar:)
