Table In Venice

Skye McAlpine offers an insider's perspective on Venetian home cooking, illustrated with her own photographs. Hundreds of thousands of tourists pass through the city of Venice each year, eat at trattorie and leave having dined in Venice, but not having eaten well. It is the food cooked in homes and made with local ingredients, the recipes passed down through generations - which Venetians guard ferociously and exclusively for their own gratification - that is Venetian food.
