The purpose of the dinner at Casa Loredan is to create a connection between people through food and to show the face of a "local" and genuine Venice. I imagine being at the table as a moment of exchange and growth. The Alloggio Casa Loredan, where the dinners take place, was in the past a place of meeting and cultural exchange for a part of the Venetian intelligentsia of the 60s, on those occasions my mother's table was generously laid.
