An aesthetically beautiful dish which can catch the attention of everybody, even those ones who never dared to try snails. They are delicate skewers although bacon is employed: as a matter of fact it combines perfectly with the snails taste, by making it softer and good even for the most suspicious of you. Skewers can be browned into a pan or grilled: they are ready in few minutes and easy to eat. In this case we have combined them with an excellent leek cream.
