For your wedding in Venice we highly recommend to taste the local cusine! Fresh sea fish is the main proposal, you absolutely need to taste the famous “sardine in saor”, one of the most ancient receipt in Venice. But we can’t forget “Bisato”, in other words it is the stewed eel.
If you prefer a meat menu, Venetian traditions offer delicious local cold meat.
