A Large Ship Berths in Venice
By traveltripz on May 15, 2007 in Venice, Europe
We were trying to cram in as much as possible in the short time we were in Venice. While we were walking around the streets, taking in the sights, smells and sounds we noticed a large ship that towered over the buildings.
The ship could be seen from many parts of Venice so we headed over to have a look. It was quite a sight and we watched as little boats came to an fro loading up produce.
Having decided where we were going to eat we sat down and read the menu. Hmmm, deep fried adriatic fish sounded nice, well I was in for a surprise. I sat there imagining that I would have lightly battered fish fillets with some salad - but no, the meal consisted of fish that looked like sprats, and each of the whole fish had been dipped in batter and fried. Not what I was expecting at all. They didn’t even appear to have been gutted. So Paula and I exchanged meals and I had Paula’s veal with pesto, which was very tasty.
