Chicken Salad with Prunes and Mushrooms (Venice Salad)
People can invent anything to explain the name of their favorite salad for example, salad Venice. Most people think that it's named after the city where it was invented. According to another version it is named in this way because of its beauty, although many other salads look much more beautiful. There is even a version that joins the origin of the snack and its name with venets - the tribes which founded Venice in 491. However, it is far-fetched.
Actually it's much more prosaic. In one of the popular Italian restaurants, such a salad was decorated with boats made of thin slices of cucumber. To somebody they seemed like Venetian gondolas, so the name of the city was attached to the snack.
