Nathaniel has had about four cups of coffee, so please bear with him as he and Darcy jump into the world of the Venice Carnavale.
I can hear you now, your questions coming to me:
What is the Carnavale? Why is it in February, one of the worst times to go to Italy (or best, if you're on a budget!)? What are the little fried pieces of Heaven called "fritelle"? And most importantly, I want a mask, where do I get one?
Well, this episode has you covered! It covers everything you need to know, and some things that are just nice to know.
Plus:
Where to buy authentic masks:
La Bauta
Atelier Marega
La Bottega Dei Mascareri
San Marco 596
Fritelle (or, Pastry Shops):
Majer
Tonolo
Rizzardini
Dal Mas
Pasticceria Toletta (Next door at the Bar all Toletta has great (and cheap) sandwiches!)
Rosa Salva
Thank you all so much for listening!
