There is something about a market that has always moved me: the colours, the noise, the vendors who have been coming every day\u00a0for decades. It reminds you that Venice is a living city, not a postcard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grocers: \u201cCasa del Parmigiano in San Polo and La Baita are essential grocery stops, small shops run with the kind of quiet expertise and genuine passion for their product that I find deeply satisfying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Neighbourhoods: \u201cDorsoduro and San Polo. The independent bookshop <a href=\"https:\/\/www.b-r-u-n-o.it\/\">Bruno<\/a>, the\u00a0small bakeries, the butcher [Macelleria] Fiore.
