April 24 - Food

Still catching up on my themes :)







Food - I love going to local markets wherever we are in the world and buying the fresh local produce - even if it is just a basket of strawberries to share in the afternoon. This market in Venice opens very early in the day and always had beautiful fresh seafood for sale, as well as vegetables, fruits and meats. I had the best seafood risotto in the world in a tiny cafe in one of the laneways of Venice.
