VENEZIA: FOOD & DREAMS - TESSA KIROS
Synopsis- In Venezia: Food & Dreams, Tessa Kiros explores the magic and charm of the famous Italian city of Venice. She embroiders the recipes of this city of canals, bridges and carnivals with her own unique colours and threads. Venice is Italy’s kingdom of salt and pearls, prosecco and mermaids, bigola and polenta. Tessa travels through the city, breathing in its atmosphere and letting its bejewelled past and dark alleyways fuel her imagination. Mingled among Tessa’s unique recipes and the stunningly beautiful food and scenic photography are Tessa’s diary jottings on Venice’s life and culinary delights.

This book is an absolute delight, beautifully produced, with golden edged pages and a black velvet bookmark and fabulous photography, it is easy to forget that this book is a cookbook. I would buy two, one for the kitchen and one for the coffee table! The cover image conveys some of the sumptuous nature of this book, but there are literally page after page of beautiful photographs capturing the essence of Venice, coupled with delicious recipes and Tessa’s notes on life in Venice, ‘ As many times as I went out was as many times as I got lost. But I was never lost, I was always somewhere in Venice’

If you love Venice and Italian food, this book really is a dream! A perfect gift for someone special.
