The name of this osteria (pub), which
violently contrasts with the owner's
delightful hospitality, may derive
either from the canal, which hosted
hashish smokers before being filled
in at the end of the 1700s, or from
the conspirators who murdered a bishop
of the Venetian Republic near here.
In 1986 this old wine shop was renovated,
keeping all the structural characteristics
of the bàcaro, or a place where
you could sip an ombra of wine (1/8
liter).
Despite the renovation work, you can
still enjoy a welcoming tavern atmosphere
thanks to the wooden casks and bricking
in view. The menu is very interesting
and includes white meat dishes on
Mondays, stews and braised meats on
Tuesdays, sòpa de fasioi (bean
soup), museto (typical sausage boiled),
nerveti (nerves) and tripe bogìe
(boiled tripes) on Wednesdays, baccalà
on Thursdays, grilled fish on Fridays
while on Saturdays at dinner time
the menu is left totally to the chef's
imagination. |
