What food is Venice famous for?
Like Julius Caesar’s Gaul, the territory of the old Venetian Republic is today divided into three parts: the regions of Trentino Alto-Adige, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and the Veneto. Appropriately, in Caesar’s time these regions were part of Cisalpine Gaul, and the name Veneto derives from the name of the Celtic tribe who lived in the area.
Although Cisalpine Gaul became part of Roman Italy in 49 BC, it retained an otherness which, due to the Italian peninsula’s long history of division and unification only arriving in 1861, persists to this day. Veneto is a region of dramatic differences. It starts high up in the mountains on the Austrian border then rolls down towards the Adriatic Sea, where it finishes with a final flourish in the city of Venezia, the bell tower of San Marco becoming the exclamation mark on the word ‘wow’! Venetian dialect and its sub-dialects are as widely spoken as they were during the thousand years of the powerful Venetian Republic, known as La Serenissima (‘the most serene’), the memory of which is still very strong.
The flag of the republic, a red banner bearing a golden lion, is still the official symbol of the region. Modern Veneto is divided into seven provinces, each named after the provincial capital. These are Belluno, Padua ( Padova in Italian), Rovigo, Treviso, Vicenza, Verona and Venice ( Venezia ).
Each province has a distinctive character and, as we shall see, unique cuisines rich in dishes and local produce. The final province of the Veneto is Venezia, dominated by the large lagoon and the city of Venezia itself. As you would expect, it has perhaps the richest tradition when it comes to food since the city of Venezia was once the capital of a large trading empire and one of the most prestigious cities in the whole of Europe.
Many of Venezia’s traditional dishes are fish-based. Bigoli in salsa (pasta in an anchovy sauce), risotto al nero di seppia (risotto cooked with cuttlefish ink) and sarde in saor (sardines preserved in a sweet and sour marinade) are amongst the most famous dishes from the province.
Also very popular are moeche, small green crabs fished out of the lagoon in the spring which are cooked and eaten whole, shell included. Ironically, for a region with a large coast, baccalà, dried fish from the north Atlantic, is very popular. In baccalà mantecato, it’s soaked, cooked in milk and then pounded with olive oil to make a kind of pâté, eaten with disks of white or yellow polenta.
Risi e bisi is a kind of risotto made from peas and pancetta. It has an almost mythical status and is said to have been served to the Doges of Venezia on the feast of Saint Mark (25 April) which is the National Day of Venezia. Pasta e fasioi is a winter warming dish consisting of a bean soup with small pieces of pasta in it.
- Among the most famous Venetian desserts are fritoe, a kind of donut made during the carnival season and pinza, a pudding made from dried bread, milk, sugar and sultanas.
- Baicoli are a kind of thin biscuit, often eaten dipped in coffee with zabaglione or crema al mascarpone (cream cheese mixed with sugar, eggs, and rum).
They are most famously made by the firm Colussi and sold all over the province in a distinctive yellow tin. Mozzarella in carozza (deep fried mozzarella sandwiches) are a local speciality, with the best ones said to come from the Rosticceria Gislon in the centre of Venezia.

However, there has been some genius thinking in combining these classic dishes with pizza for some truly innovative pizza toppings.
The restaurant Santarpia is an example of this, by offering pizza topped with lampredotto, Another superb restaurant worth mentioning is Ristorante Ciro & Sons, which combines two unforgettable Italian dishes – pizza with beef bresaola.

What is a typical breakfast in Venice?
Giavedoni’s idea of a typical Venetian breakfast is as simple as the meal itself; ‘ An espresso and a croissant!’. No fuss, nothing elaborate, and neither is the method of consuming it, which Giavedoni describes succinctly as ‘standing up at their favorite coffee shop’.

Do you tip waiters in Venice?
Restaurant Tipping in Venice – Tipping in Venice restaurants is probably the most confusing for tourists. Most restaurants add a 12% service charge called– coperto, which literally means place setting, – for sitting and using the table linen and dishes.
- But, bear in mind that this charge does not go to the waiting staff, but rather to the owner of the establishment.
- Waiters and waitresses are salaried in Venice.
- When a service charge is included in the bill, there’s no need to leave a tip.
- But, if you are more than satisfied with the service, you may want to leave 5%-10%.
If a service charge is not added to your bill, leave a tip of 12% or so. If you pay for your meal by credit card, make sure to have cash on hand, as you cannot pay the tip on your credit card; there isn’t usually a line item on the receipt to add one.

What is the best month to go to Venice?
By Rick Steves and Gene Openshaw – Venice’s best travel months (also its busiest and most expensive) are April, May, June, September, and October. Summer in Venice is more temperate (high 70s and 80s) than in Italy’s scorching inland cities. Most Venetian hotels come with air-conditioning — important in the summer — but it’s usually available only from May (at the earliest) through September.
- Spring and fall can be cool, and many hotels — thanks to a national interest in not wasting energy — are not allowed to turn on their heat until winter.
- Between November and March you can usually expect mild winter weather (with lows in the 30s and 40s), occasional flooding, shorter lines, lower prices, and fewer tourists (except during Carnevale, generally in February).
While Carnevale comes with high hotel prices, it’s a big party, with special concerts, lots of kids’ events, fresh pastries, and costumed figures crowding through the city. March offers a good balance of low-season prices and reasonable weather. Venice has two main weather patterns: Wind from the southeast (the Balkans) brings cold and dry weather, while the sirocco wind from the south (north Africa) brings warm and wet weather, pushing more water into the lagoon and causing flooding ( acqua alta ).

Why is pizza with pineapple not allowed in Italy?
The Prohibition of Pineapple on Pizza — a Legal Analysis A bit of fun from my time studying international law T he Prohibition of Pineapple on Pizza (PPoP) is jus cogens, a international legal norm from which no derogation is allowed. It is considered a barbaric practice that violates the very essence of morality, humanity, culinary dignity of all Peoples and good taste. Close up — Hawaiian The State of Italy has also unilaterally announced that putting pineapple on pizza under any circumstances is tantamount to an Act of War under International Law. This understanding has gained acceptance following the International Law Commission’s (ILC) Draft Articles on Properly Preparing a Pizza (1996).
It is generally held that Italy’s right to Self-Defence under art.51 of the United Nations Charter (UNC) is automatically activated in case of pineapple being placed on pizza. This norm has been partially codified in the United Nation’s Convention on the Law of Pineapple (UNCLoP), see art.23(4)(b). The International Court of Justice (ICJ) and The Intergalactic Tribunal on Internationally Wrongful Acts Related to Pizza and Good Eats in General (ITIWARPaGEiG) have upheld the PPoP through its Piña Colada Principle (PCP) and the Fruit Salad Doctrine (FSD).
Notable cases include the Dominos-Papa John’s Case (Italy v. USA, 1981) and the Pineapple Disaster Case (Japan v. Peru, 2004). In the latter, the ICJ stated: “The placement of pineapple on pizza remains one of the most heinous culinary acts a state or individual can engage in.

What is the capital of pizza in Italy?
Naples, the Birthplace of Pizza, Has Finally Perfected the Gluten-Free Crust The story goes like this: In 1889, a Neapolitan cook named Raffaele Esposito concocted the “Pizza Margherita,” colored like the Italian flag with tomatoes, mozzarella and basil, to honor Margherita of Savoy, the queen consort of Italy.
While many contest the origin story—some and even —no one disputes that Naples is the pizza capital of the world. Over the past few years, the sacred (and legally protected) dish has become widely accessible to Neapolitans who can’t digest wheat, and this is another story worth celebrating. In Italy, there are an who have celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder treated with a gluten-free diet.
called “Alimentazione Fuori Casa” (“Nutrition Away from Home”) has led to over 4,000 restaurants, pizzerias, hotels and ice cream shops following gluten-free guidelines set by Associazione Italiana Celiachia. As awareness spreads throughout Italy, arguably faster than in many other European countries where gluten-free is understood as a fad diet or not understood at all, the food options for people with celiac, long alienated by their inability to eat pasta or pizza in a country where both reign supreme, have improved.
Italians are tested for celiac at an early age, and many who test positive receive a monthly stipend from the government for gluten-free food. “In the last few years every grocery store has started to sell gluten-free stuff,” my friend Francesco, who is from Pisa, told me. “I remember that ten years ago my grandpa used to buy that stuff at the pharmacy because there was nothing in the grocery store.” A woman who lives in the Southern region Calabria told me there’s still progress to be made in many parts of the country.
“I went to a pizzeria in Calabria with a friend of mine who is celiac, so she asked the pizzeria owner something gluten-free for her,” she said. “So he offered her a plate of pasta. He probably didn’t even know what celiac disease was.” Fortunately, the pizza capital of the world has a growing number of options for people affected by celiac.
If you want to experience the chewy, charred magic that is Naples pizza but don’t want to sabotage your small intestine, check out these three pizzerias that have mastered the crust. Gino Sorbillo Lievito Madre al Mare ( 1 Via Partenope ) Not only do their pizzas look indistinguishable from their gluten-y counterparts, but their crusts are almost exact replicas: chewy, soft, crispy and the ideal vehicle for fresh mozzarella di bufala and local tomatoes. (115 Via San Biagio Dei Librai) Opened by the three brothers Vesi in the city’s historic center in 2015, the gluten-free offshoot of Pizzeria Vesi is beloved by gluten-intolerant locals who need a reliable margherita fix. (120 Via dei Tribunali)
On the pizzeria-studded street Via dei Tribunali, Presidente stands out as one of the best pizzerias in Naples—and its gluten-free pie lives up to the hype. Topped the super fresh ingredients, the fluffy-crispy pizzas are cooked in a separate gluten-free oven and, I’m told, can bring people with celiac to tears.

What are the two types of pizza in Italy?
The Classic: Pizza Napoletana – As many Italians will tell you, pizza was born in Naples, The Neapolitans are pretty pernickety about their pizza-making. They have even created a registered discipline in Neapolitan Pizza Making to keep it in their preserve.
- They use no fat in the dough and add lots of water to make it wet and sticky.
- Typically, the dough is left to rise at room temperature for a good amount of time – 8 to 24 hours – before the dough is rolled out and cooked in a wood-fired oven.
- Neapolitan pizza cooks at soaring temperatures (around 450°C ) and for a short amount of time (a maximum of 90 seconds ).
The result is wonderful: a gooey soft centre which is boarded by a tall, fluffy crust or ‘cornicione’. In Naples, they are so evangelical about their crust that they use hardly any toppings to garnish their pizza. In the most traditional pizzerias they only make two types of pizza: Marinara (tomatoes, garlic, oregano and olive oil) or Margherita (tomato, mozzarella, basil and olive oil).

Where is pizza known for in Italy?
Pizza has a long history. Flatbreads with toppings were consumed by the ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks, (The latter ate a version with herbs and oil, similar to today’s focaccia.) But the modern birthplace of pizza is southwestern Italy’s Campania region, home to the city of Naples.
- Founded around 600 B.C.
- As a Greek settlement, Naples in the 1700s and early 1800s was a thriving waterfront city.
- Technically an independent kingdom, it was notorious for its throngs of working poor, or lazzaroni.
- The closer you got to the bay, the more dense their population, and much of their living was done outdoors, sometimes in homes that were little more than a room,” says Carol Helstosky, author of Pizza: A Global History and associate professor of history at the University of Denver.
These Neapolitans required inexpensive food that could be consumed quickly. Pizza—flatbreads with various toppings, eaten for any meal and sold by street vendors or informal restaurants—met this need. “Judgmental Italian authors often called their eating habits ‘disgusting,'” Helstosky notes.
- These early pizzas consumed by Naples’ poor featured the tasty garnishes beloved today, such as tomatoes, cheese, oil, anchovies and garlic.
- WATCH: Full episodes of The Food That Built America online now.
- Italy unified in 1861, and King Umberto I and Queen Margherita visited Naples in 1889.
- Legend has it that the traveling pair became bored with their steady diet of French haute cuisine and asked for an assortment of pizzas from the city’s Pizzeria Brandi, the successor to Da Pietro pizzeria, founded in 1760.
The variety the queen enjoyed most was called pizza mozzarella, a pie topped with soft white cheese, red tomatoes and green basil. (Perhaps it was no coincidence that her favorite pie featured the colors of the Italian flag.) From then on, the story goes, that particular topping combination was dubbed pizza Margherita.
- Queen Margherita’s blessing could have been the start of an Italy-wide pizza craze.
- But pizza would remain little known in Italy beyond Naples’ borders until the 1940s.
- An ocean away, though, immigrants to the United States from Naples were replicating their trusty, crusty pizzas in New York and other American cities, including Trenton, New Haven, Boston, Chicago and St.
Louis. The Neapolitans were coming for factory jobs, as did millions of Europeans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries; they weren’t seeking to make a culinary statement. But relatively quickly, the flavors and aromas of pizza began to intrigue non-Neapolitans and non-Italians.
Scroll to Continue One of the first documented United States pizzerias was G. (for Gennaro) Lombardi’s on Spring Street in Manhattan, licensed to sell pizza in 1905. (Prior to that, the dish was homemade or purveyed by unlicensed vendors.) Lombardi’s, still in operation today though no longer at its 1905 location, “has the same oven as it did originally,” notes food critic John Mariani, author of How Italian Food Conquered the World,
READ MORE: Meet a Long-Lost Father of New York City Pizza Debates over the finest slice in town can be heated, as any pizza fan knows. But Mariani credited three East Coast pizzerias with continuing to churn out pies in the century-old tradition: Totonno’s (Coney Island, Brooklyn, opened 1924); Mario’s (Arthur Avenue, the Bronx, opened 1919); and Pepe’s (New Haven, opened 1925).
As Italian-Americans, and their food, migrated from city to suburb, east to west, especially after World War II, pizza’s popularity in the United States boomed. No longer seen as an “ethnic” treat, it was increasingly identified as fast, fun food. Regional, decidedly non-Neapolitan variations emerged, eventually including California-gourmet pizzas topped with anything from barbecued chicken to smoked salmon.
Postwar pizza finally reached Italy and beyond. “Like blue jeans and rock and roll, the rest of the world, including the Italians, picked up on pizza just because it was American,” explains Mariani. Today international outposts of American chains like Domino’s and Pizza Hut thrive in about 60 different countries.
