Itinerary
Just a stone’s throw away from Piazza San Marco, you’ll get the chance to try traditional Venetian crustless sandwiches or ‘tramezzinis’ with ham and mushrooms at Rosa Salva, a pasticceria open since 1867
Keep walking towards an old fish market on the banks of the canal, where you could try creamed codfish or marinated sardines
Then, hidden away a few steps from the Rialto bridge is a must-try foodie haven; from ‘polenta bianca’ to ‘fritto misto’ (fried seafood) and ‘lasagnette con nero di seppia’ (pasta with squid ink), you may just have to undo that top button.
The gastronomic delights won’t end here - fancy tasting Osteria della Vedova’s famous meatballs, with a 150-year old secret recipe at this cozy bacaro with its walls covered with brass pans & a menu featuring meatballs & local wines?
