Eating out in Venice can be a traumatic affair - especially for your wallet - yet the local food has much to offer the inquiring diner. That's why this compact guide to the eateries of the city is so useful. Most of the eateries in the guide offer one - or both - of two distinct eating formats. Some serve traditional Italian sit-down meals of anti-pasto, primo, secondo and dolce (starter, pasta, meat or fish and dessert), while others concentrate on the typically Venetian cicheto, or snack, to be consumed standing at the bar with a glass of wine, known as an ombra. This guide will tell you where to find tasty traditional and innovatice cicheti. To keep explanations in the eatery profiles to a minimum, Venetian and Italian terms are explained in the glossary. The great virtue of this guide is that it tells you how much you can expect to pay in each of the restaurants featured. It is a given that everything in Venice costs more than elsewhere in Italy, but sometimes the disparity can ruin the visitor's digestion. A meal in Venice should be unique experience. "A Guide to the Eateries of Venice" will help you find an eatery that is unforgettable - for the right reasons.
