What a discovery - a wine bar and a tiny restaurant in one near the Rialto market. Admittedly, the place is best on warm spring and summer days when the terrace with its view of the Grand Canal is open. The ground floor will greet you with a wine bar where you can order a glass or two accompanied by some snacks; the impressive-looking signore in a chequered shirt behind the counter is the owner Andrea. The most exciting meal, however, is to be had at one of the six or seven upstairs tables - you have to book one of those in advance. The small vaulted room with revealed brickwork, tiny windows and dripping candles on each of the tables is more reminiscent of a cell. The waitress waits for you to study the menu properly and then approaches you: "What would you like to order? I won't be a minute..." Just get your priorities in order and then surrender... Bancogiro is a place where you feel accepted from the word "go". Excellent albeit flavour-wise traditional Italian food. An integral part of Venetian cocina is raw and marinated fish. The proximity of the Rialto market makes itself felt in the abundance and freshness of choice. Raw scallops with cranberries and rocket salad. Fish with artichoke chips. Fish lasagne - so creamy and airy it literally melts in your mouth. Bancogiro is a place you will definitely look forward to coming back to.
