Bonacini's Italy
Veneto
The Veneto region of Italy is located on the Northeastern side of the country and spills into the Adriatic Sea, which returns a bounty of fish and seafood. Host Michael Bonacini starts off with a local, fish favourite - Sweet and Sour Sardines. For his primo, Michael offers his take on a traditional, Venetian specialty featuring thick polenta and sweet garlic shrimp. For his secondo, Michael then makes Chicken Cacciatore with Radicchio Orange Salad. This dish is the perfect pairing - the bright Radicchio Orange Salad contrasts the rich depth of flavour from the many rustic Italian ingredients infused in the chicken. Lastly, Venetian legend has it that the popular Italian dessert, Tiramisu, was invented in Veneto. True or not, Michael carefully crafts the perfect Tiramisu for any occasion.
