Venetians are incredibly proud of their cuisine and have been for centuries. Walking around Venice makes it easy to explore the Rialto Fish Market, the countless restaurants and cafes lining the streets and canals, and, of course, the bacari serving cicchetti throughout Venice.
What are cicchetti?
Cicchetto derives from the Venetian dialect and means a small portion or little bite. Often described as an Italian twist on tapas, these small dishes have become closely associated with Venice. It is uncommon to visit Venice without trying at least one cicchetti during your stay.
