Restaurant Recommendations 2022

Bistrot de Venise

The first stop to taste historical menus in Venice, and during Carnival, I love their crema rosada – rose cream desserts.

Conca d’Oro

On Campo San Filipo e Giacomo, they prepare gold-plated pizzefor Carnival, based on the ancient recipes for focacce in Venice.

Amo Venezia

Set in the Fondaco dei Tedeschi overlooking the Grand Canal, you can experience a luxurious tea ceremony during Carnival.

Wisteria

Hidden in a garden under a mighty wisteria, this is a newcomer in venice. And in my opinnoin, the most colorful restaurant I’ve ever seen.

Dinner Show

By Antonia Sautter: The menu of a special banquet, immersed in purple and light blue, which took place in Venice on 19 February 2022.
