Staying at Venissa in Mazzorbo made our trip to Venice "in August" a lot more bearable. Toby, thanks for some of these suggestions, all good!
- Gatto Nero (Burano): famous for its seafood risotto, it does not disappoint. Lovely service and local crowd in the evening, far from the tourist crazies.
- Cipriani (Torcello): the vegetable risotto here was divine, a fine and civilized setting indeed, especially if you're able to arrive at the doorstep by vaporetto.
- Trattoria Antiche Carampane (San Polo): everyone loves this place, rightly so.
- Osteria alle Testiere (Castello): foodie hang out, ie calamari and cardoons...
- Vini di Arturo (San Marco) Calle Degli Assassini
