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!
Darcy and Nathaniel
