Cicchetti or cicheti, if you’re in Venice, are small snacks found at bacari, small casual bars packed with locals in the early evening.
Usually displayed in glass cases on the bar counter, these finger foods come to you on toothpicks or on slices of a baguette.
At Cantina Do Mori, in Venice we found everything from arancini to salt cod puree on crusty bread; salty, hard cheeses to prosciutto; olives to fried baby artichoke hearts. These tasty snacks varied by the day and we never got tired of stopping here for a snack or a light lunch.
