primo piatto - first course (often pasta or soup)
secondo piatto - second course or main course

It's not that often that you are going to go for all the courses: antipasto, primo, secondo, formaggio, dessert (unless you are very hungry, have lots of time and money is no object!). Some restaurants have a buffet-type selection of antipasti which is a great way of sampling lots of different titbits.
