I just wanted to dedicate a post to some of the deliciousness of Venezia…

The open air markets that display fresh, luscious produce…

They open around 5pm on some of the main streets in Venice. It’s a beautiful sight.

Gelato…

This is fig (ficchi) gelato from the other day. Today we went back to the same place and got yogurt gelato… Both of us prefer the yogurt; it’s slightly less sweet but it’s real, pure yogurty goodness that can only be found in Europe. The yogurt I’ve been having for breakfast is similarly incredible – you just can’t get yogurt like this in the US.

Have you ever been to Italy? Have you had true Italian gelato? Shopped at the Italian markets?
