Discover the NUMBER 1 street food in Venice: Cicchetti, the epic Venetian version of tapas. These finger foods usually come as small slices of bread or polenta topped with local high quality ingredients. Venice is built on water, therefore it doesn't come as a surprise that the most traditional Cicchetti are with seafood:
- Creamed cod on polenta (Italian: baccalà mantecato).
- Boiled egg with anchovies (Italian: mezzo uovo con acciuga).
However, I prefer the ones with cold meat cuts. You will find these delicacies at a Bacaro or an Osteria. Cicchetti are loved by Venetians. Thus, when in Venice - eat like a local. Buy a plate full of these and bring them next to the beautiful and scenic Venice canals… This will be the best food experience you will ever have.
Venice is one of the top travel destinations in the world and therefore expensive in general. If you are visiting Venice on a budget, then Cicchetti are a cheap way of having decent meals. One Cicchetto average €2.
