Publisher's Synopsis
There's an old Venetian saying - 'magna e bevi che a vita xe un lampo' - which translates to 'eat and drink because life is a lightning flash'. With this in mind, Katie and Giancarlo Caldesi have dodged the tourists and unearthed some of the most delicious and authentic recipes that the romantic, alluring city of Venice has to offer. From San Marco to the old Jewish area, the Caldesis draw inspiration from the less obvious areas of the sinking city for their delectable recipes.
