30 DAYS OPEN PURCHASEPOLPO is one of London's most popular restaurants. On a Soho backstreet you'll find Russel Norman's restaurant, where food is served in the Venetian tradition. The food is simple, inventive and irresistibly delicious, so good that rumour has it a person actually born in Venice has given it the nod. The 140 recipes in the book include caprese stacks, zucchini fries, asparagus with parmesan and anchovy butter, butternut risotto, arancini, rabbit cacciatore, warm duck salad with wet walnuts and beetroot, crispy baby pizzas with prosciutto and rocket, scallops with lemon and mint, mackerel tartare, linguine with clams, whole gilt-head bream, warm octopus salad, soft-shell crab in parmesan batter with fennel salad, walnut and honey semifreddo, tiramisù, sparkling bellinis and zesty orange spritz. In other words, you can pull off a proper dinner party just by reading up! With gorgeous photos by Jenny Zarins capturing Venice's hidden street corners, buzzing bàcari bars and murky canals, POLPO is a dazzling tribute to Italy's most overlooked cuisine.
