Say hi to Pooja Hegde, who is off on a luxurious Italian vacation. And an Italian vacation is incomplete without trying out delicious delicacies; mainly, cheese, cold cuts, gelato and wine. The actress too shares a similar sentiment. Following the “map of la dolce vita”, she found herself tasting a variety of delicacies during a city tour in Liechtenstein. Pooja’s gastronomical adventure, as can be seen in her Instagram carousel, began with prawn linguine and a glass of fresh lemon soda. Next, she indulged in strawberry gelato cone ice cream. Her culinary exploits ended with the quintessential Italian specialty – a bowl of delicious spaghetti, topped with mushrooms and basil leaves. Is your mouth watering? Pooja Hegde is responsible for this.
