The Veneto also forms part of the "polenta, bean and rice belt" of Italy, and?risotti,?pulses and a beautiful white polenta are more prevalent than pasta. There are many?pasticcerie,?and shops selling?gelati?or ice cream. Don’t forget about the wonderful Venetian?Prosecco?(the grapes are grown in Treviso), and?grappa,?which comes from Vicenza.
