La TAVOLA
You can read about the magical city of Venice in a multitude of books both fiction and non-fiction. And this is quite a wonderful thing to do whether you have wandered the maze of alley-ways, Fondamentas (walk-ways along a Canal), portegos, Canals, over this Bridge or that, or not. If you've been to Venice, you read and it brings you back. If you've never been to La Serinisema and dream to be in the enchanted city one day, reading about Venice helps to fuel you cherished dreams, and Venice is if anything a "Dream City" filled with enchantment at every turn.
La Tavola by Italian-American New Yorker Daniel Bellino-Zwicke is not about Venice per say, but Venice is in there, as is New York, a most Italian City, Rome, Tuscany, Chianti Classic, Garda, The Amalfi Coast, Sicily. La Tavola is a wonderful book that is so much. It's Italy, it's Italian-America. It's Italian-American New York. It's Wonderful.
La Tavola is manily about Italian-American New Yorkers and their adventures of kitchen and Table "La Tavola." La Tavola is of food, Italian and Italian-American food. It is of Italy, the people, the food, the places (Venice, Rome, Vineyears, Churches, Salumerias, Market The Rialto and more ..), vineyards, Wine Estates, islands, everything. Italy is never ending. The author Daniel Bellino in telling a story of Italian-America, Italian Americans and Itlian New Yorkers, tells a story of Italian American Food, which is Italian-Food with variations here and there. La Tavola tells a stories of Italian-Americans and their food, the ways of cooking and "all that is tied together with it." Italian American Food, people and the rituals starts in Italy and cross the Atlantic Ocean to America. Italian American immigrants keep most of their ways. But it's impossible for everything to be exactly the same. Different geographic locations have their influences. This is how Italian-American Cuisine came to be. It's Italian Cuisine with slight modifications here and there.
Yes there is quite a lot in la Tavola. It is of food, Italian Food and of people, Italian and Italian-American like the great Frank Sinatra who is woven into the stories. As is Venice, the enchanted city on the Adriatic. Venice is in there and is within a wonderful chapter on Italian Wine.
La Tavola? It's got Sunday Sauce, Meatballs, Braciole, Veal Parms, New York, Salumerias, pork Stores, Italian Restaurants and Caffes, Italian Wine, Rome, Venice, and SInatra. "It's all in there."
