Venetian Night falls upon us Saturday, which means that the crowds coming downtown to witness the fireworks and boats on the lake will rival Taste of Chicago's. Chef Luca Corazzina's of 312 Chicago has put together a Venetian-themed menu available from tomorrow through Sunday. He's also bringing in his mother, Gabriella, to give him a helping hand in the kitchen. Corazzina lists his mother as an influence on his becoming a chef and this brings certain full circle closure to his chef's career to this point. It would also be cool to see Gabriella Corazzina walkign around the dining room, giving it a classic Italian mother's touch.

We can't even get our mother to do laundry when we visit.
