[Sca-cooks] carpaccio?

[Stefan li Rous]

Antonia mentioned:
<<< I like raw beef (carpaccio etc.), but not if it has any noticable  
fat on
it.>>>

What is carpaccio? We've discussed at least one raw meat dish here  
before, but I don't remember this being it. From the name, I assume  
this is Italian. Is that true? What other types of raw meat dishes  
are there? Do such meats need to be from a particular cut of meat or  
a particular animal?

Thanks,
   Stefan
