Giuseppe Cipriani, the owner of Harry’s Bar in Venice, received many famous guests during the 1950s including Charlie Chaplin and Ernest Hemingway. The Venetian countess, Amalia Nani Mocenigo, was a regular at this bar and suffered from anemia. Her doctor recommended that she only eat raw, red meat, which led to the invention of beef carpaccio! The dish is named after the 16th-century painter Vittore Carpaccio, whose work was on show in Venice at the time.
