Venezia: Food & Dreams - Tessa Kiros

A former co-worker once said that a really good cookbook rises to the level of art.  If you believe that, you’ll want a copy of Venezia (Andrews McMeel, $34.99), by Tessa Kiros, on your shelf.   I know Julia Child and French cooking are all the rage right now, but let’s not forget about Italian food!  Venezia presents Venetian fare in a way that will make you want to start cooking immediately—or to book a flight to Venice.  Either way, you’re a winner.   You could even put this book on your coffee table; there are plenty of gorgeous photos of Venice to look at.  So go ahead, open Venezia and take yourself away (gastronomically, photographically) to beautiful Venice.
