Cultural Tip

In Italy, 'Buddha bowl' is a trendy term for a nutritious, all‑in‑one bowl of grains, vegetables, legumes, and protein. While the English word is kept, Italians often use the Italian article and plural form (i Buddha bowl). Some prefer the Anglicized plural 'i Buddha bowls', but both are understood. When ordering, feel free to ask for specific ingredients – the concept is built around personal choice.
