We're just back from Venice where we spent a wonderful and romantic weekend.
We
decided to leave at the last minute but fortunately after few hours
drive we arrived in Piazzale Roma, a shortwalk from the taxi that would
take us to the hotel.
We
wanted to stay in our favourite hotel called Ca' Maria Adele, but it
was full, so we opted for the famous Bauer which puts you directly in
another time and in a surreal atmosphere.
Luck
was on our side...in fact the receptionist gave us a room much better
than booked, with a beautiful window overlooking Santa Maria della
Salute!
After
a walk through the old streets we allow two aperitifs: the first in a
classic bar called "Florian"(from 1720) where we sipped a delicious
vodkatini sitting on the porch of Piazza San Marco, the second one at
the Oriental Bar (Metropole hotel) a charming place damaged from foreign
children eating spaghetti with tomato sauce ( Parents, you can't do
this!!!!)
The
dinner was very good this time, in fact we found a really nice place
which delighted us: "La Caravella", dark, romantic and noisy (i hate the
restaurants where you hear forks noise).
Until the end we hoped for a call from the Met ( the best restaurant in Venice) where we were on the waiting list...
After
dinner we returned to our hotel where we drunk a whisky (to digest the
venetian cuisine!) and then to bed, tired and happy...
The
next day we had a substantial breakfast, delicious salmon, eggs and
mushrooms, in the beautiful hall on the 7th floor which offers a
breathtaking view... and then we run to Biennale which really positively
impressed us!
