Alla Vedova, Venice

Alla Vedova is almost legendary as one of the oldest bacari or wine-bars in the city. It's convenient to go there after visiting Rialto Market - just take a gondola in a nearby traghetto stop, and it will ferry you across the Grand Canal. The small eatery, always packed with people in lunchtime, exudes a casual Venetian ambiance, so charming and seemingly unchanged over the decades. Another its advantage is affordable prices - a main course costs about 9 euro. It offers a full range of typical local fare - from liver venetian-style to octopus with cuttlefish sauce. It has simple and authentic décor with wooden tables, old photos and marble bar counter. Even though you are not hungry, you can just take a brake at the bar together with some locals and drink an ombra - a glass of homemade wine that costs 1 to 2 euro. Ombra means "a shade" in Italian and comes from those days when people sold wine in St. Mark square standing in the shade of campanile, to keep their product fresh and cool.
