Daniel Bellino and Venice

 



PIAZZA San MARCO

VENICE


Daniel Bellino Zwicke is a New York-based food and wine writer, restaurateur, and author known for his expertise in Italian cuisine, who has a strong connection to Venice. He is the author of the book Italian Food & Travels: Rome Venice Pizza Pasta & ? and created "America's First Venetian Wine Bar" called Bar Cichetti. 

Connection to VENICE
Inspiration for Bar Cichetti: Bellino traveled to Venice on an "exploratory" trip to experience the traditional Venetian wine bars, known as bacari, and specialize in cichetti (small snacks). This trip inspired him to open Bar Cichetti in New York City in 1998, which specialized in Italian wines and cichetti, replicating the Venetian bacaroexperience in the United States.
  • Writings: His book Italian Food & Travels draws on his experiences in various Italian cities, including Venice. He writes about his time in the city, including visits to landmarks like Harry's Bar and the Rialto Market.
  • Venetian Landmarks: In his writings and social media posts, he mentions visiting famous Venetian sites, such as Harry's Bar (where he ate carpaccio and drank Bellinis), the Rialto Market, and staying at the Albergho Gueratto hotel. 

  • Books by Daniel Bellino Zwicke 
Bellino has authored several books, which often focus on Italian-American cooking, travel, and wine. Notable titles available on Amazon.com include: 
Italian Food & Travels: Rome Venice Pizza Pasta & ?
  • Sunday Sauce
  • The Feast of the 7 Fish
  • Got Any Kahlua? (also known as The Big Lebowski Cookbook)
  • Mangia Italiano: Memories of Italian Food
  • Segreto Italiano: Secret Italian Recipes & Favorite Dishes 
  • You can find more information and his latest articles on his website.
