Introduction

Anyone who has strolled around Venice in search of something to eat will have come across cicchetti. Irresistible little morsels full of local flavour, they are served in bars, bacari and other eateries from late morning onwards and are the Venetian equivalent of Italian antipasti, Spanish tapas, French canapés, Thai street food or English finger food. Made using traditional methods and produce, these meat, seafood, and vegetable treats are the best of Italian cooking in miniature. This gorgeous cookery book is a comprehensive collection of authentic and innovative recipes that will set your taste buds tingling.
