I have visited Venice quite often, and plan to be there again this September. I was delighted to learn some new things from Cecelia and have written down the names of all of the Bacari she mentioned. At least half of which I never experienced. (I'll work on that!) I also enjoyed her recipe section, ans plan to get some Dolce gorgonzola and walnuts soon. Thank you for these great programs.
I was just in Venice last summer and hope to go back in the near future, and Cecilia's talk was so informative and interesting—particularly because seeking out and eating good cichetti at great bàcari help provide a much more intimate experience of Venice's neighborhoods beyond San Marco. Mouthwatering!
Cecilia shared historical context prior to sharing information about best bacari and cicchetti in Venice. I learned so much from this live context webinar.
Very informative- learned a lot and appreciate the recipes too
