Chrismas eve at my favorite aunt's and uncle's house with the all fish, (no meat allowed), dinner. Shrimp coctail, baked clams, calamari and other fishes.
Spaghetti with clam sauce was a favorite.
Antipasto, shrimp coctail, dinner, fennel and roasted chestnuts folowed by several type of desserts. Unfortunately, none of the younger family members would continue that tradition. Those were the days.
One dish I really loved was menest. Escarole with anchovies and black olives. It used to melt in one mouth.
