A new cookbook from the author of POLPO: a collection of easy seasonal Italian recipes with stunning photographs Russell Norman returns to Venice - the city that inspired POLPO - to immerse himself in the authentic flavours of the Veneto and the culinary traditions of the city. His rustic kitchen - in the residential quarter of the city where washing hangs across the narrow streets and neighbours don't bother to lock their doors - provides the perfect backdrop for this adventure, and for the 130 lip-smacking, easy Italian family recipes showcasing the simple but exquisite flavours of Venice. The book also affords us a rare and intimate glimpse into the life of the city, its hidden architectural gems, its secret places, the embedded history, the colour and vitality of daily life, and the food merchants and growers who make Venice so surprisingly vibrant. 'Russell Norman is among the brightest stars of the British food scene ... In Venice, he returns to the recipes of that most inspirational Italian city.' Esquire 'Offers a rare insight into the beating heart of the city' i Praise for Polpo 'POLPO does what a great cookbook should do: it makes you urgently want to cook and breaks new territory' Daily Telegraph 'Wonderful ... the dishes are simple, with relatively few ingredients, but they're inspired' Evening Standard
