Until now, Wolfgang Salomon had solid ground beneath his feet when he raved about his favorite city, Venice. This time, he ventures onto the water. From Muggia to Trieste, Grado, and Venice, all the way to Chioggia, he signs on as a ship's cook on a sailboat, delighting the crew and readers with everything the lagoon has to offer. There are fresh dishes and stories from the region that he knows like the back of his hand – along with a suitable playlist of his favorite songs as an interlude. That's amore!

This is a unique logbook featuring authentic recipes for the kitchen and galley, as well as tips for shopping locally. And for those who prefer not to cook themselves, there are, of course, local recommendations!.
