Cantina Do Mori - Venice

Traditional Venetian cuisine . Felt it was a local spot . They don't take reservations.

The dinner was wonderful, especially the Veal Milanesa alla Bruche. Sofi and Nella made it a very special first night in Milan.

AOK Cicchetti with decent wine and a modern trendy vibe. It is tucked away in a little alley. A fine enough spot to take in the Venetian vibe and some tasty cicchetti.

The canteen mori is the oldest inn of venecia. located in the rialto area, this inn was opened in 1462. the rows of copper pots hang creating a very special decoration. the owners serve the wine directly from the jars that accompany them a taco ham cap. is very close to the rialto market.

Serving ciccheti and wine since 1448. The final stop on the ciccheti noshing day and a winner. Why? They have a sit down restaurant where you can supplement those little bites with true Venetian classics. Bigoli in squid ink anyone? Tip: Go at lunch or in the early evening (before 18:00) for the best selection. The sit down restaurant offers sampling plates of cicchetti if dining later in the evening. While it has been discovered by international tourist, you are afforded a very good view into the food culture of Venezia. To start, don 't pass on the assortment of ciccheti for two. From perfectly grilled sweet shrimp finished with a lemony EVOO, to blistered but perfectly tender sepia, a squid meatball (squid filled with airy meatball), grilled sardines and the item the restaurant is known for, the outstanding sarde in saor (sardines in vinegar) that top hardboiled egg halves. Vinegar has made the sardines tender, onions, add sweetness, great salinity and a strong umami finish. The fritto misto, excellent. Perfect timing on the cook of each seafood item, moistness throughout. Dusted in flour, aggressively seasoned, deep fried to a golden crispness. Shrimp, calamari, lagoon fish, sardines with heads and bones attached, and an unknown fish with the gelatinous texture very similar to that of an eel. All with their own flavor. All great together. Very good selection of wines from the Veneto. Very inexpensive at around €20 €30 per bottle. Absolutely zero complaints if you follow their suggestions. Casual, energetic, fun service. Fluent English though leading with Italian is welcome. Cash only at the bar. Credit cards accepted in the restaurant. 2 week advanced reservations required that will be cancelled if not confirmed by voice 24hrs in advance. The perfect way to end a ciccheti crawl through the back streets of Venezia.
