Rest. Antiche Carampane in Venice

Venice is such beautiful off-season, almost empty.


I would like to recommend you the family-owned Rest. “Antiche Carampane”. One of the best in Venice and more importantly the favorite of the locals. Of course famous for its seafood, but the wine-carte and atmosphere is terrific too. Fair to say a little bit difficult to find in the San Polo district and reservation only (!) with credit card, but easy to make online. Anyway such a beautiful place.

Glad to see that the restaurateur Russell Norman famous for POLPO loves the restaurant too.

“This is a family-run place in the red-light district and I love it. It’s very busy, and always full of locals, which means the language being spoken is Venetian. The dishes they serve are proudly Venetian too. As soon as you arrive they’ll deliver little cones made out of menu paper, filled with deep-fried, lightly battered schie – tiny shrimp from the lagoon which are deliciously crispy and salty.”
