The Christmas List: A Venetian Journal: Food, Travel, Dreams… by Tessa Kiros

“This is a gorgeous companion to the beautiful book “Venezia” by Tessa Kiros. “A Venetian Journal” encourages food lovers who travel and those who explore the world via recipes, to map their own journey, recording favourite recipes and memorable cooking and eating experiences. Structured around the classic Italian meal: Antipasti, Primi, Secondi, Contorni, and Dolci, “A Venetian Journal” features the photographer Manos Chatzikonstantis’ personal selection of photographs from his frequent visits to Venice with Tessa and fragments from her own journals as she sought to imbibe the very essence of the world’s most romantic city.” Divine! A beautiful present!
