Venice, like every region of Italy, is known for its traditional food specialities. A visit to Venice offers an opportunity to discover fascinating gastronomic traditions. Obviously due to Venice’s location on the sea, there is a large abundance of fish dishes, simply seasoned with olive oil, vinegar, garlic, parsley, and herbs. Although the lagoon is famous for the quality and variety of its fish, the inland river waters’ fresh fish are also cherished in recipes.
