Ciao, gourmets! Friday has come, or maybe just a meeting with friends in the middle of the week or a light party in honor of a birthday, the occasion is unimportant, the main thing is a snack and drinks! As a tender snack, the choice of Italians is obvious – it’s crostini with various fillings. Crostini with red fish is perfect for any celebration. Moreover, crostini is ideal with wines.
