SAN GIORGIO CAFE'

In Venice, on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, there is a place where art and beauty come together with the most genuine expression of Venetian food and wine. Meticulous research and traceability characterise the ingredients that come from small regional producers. The first fruits of the islands of Sant'Erasmo and the Venetian Lagoon are an essential part of our recipes, expressing seasonality and freshness. Our chef's candid and extravagant creativity intertwines with the most authentic local traditions throughout the various times of the day: the calmness of breakfast, the conviviality of lunch, the pleasure of coffee breaks, the rituals surrounding the aperitivo, the sophistication of dinners served at one of the loveliest terraces in Venice, looking out over the Basin of St Mark. "Risi e Bisi" in three textures, "Baci di Gondola", "Labirinto Spritz" (inspired by Jorge Luis Borges' labyrinthine experiences), or even "Bellini Spritz" (a reference to this emblematic Venetian peach-based cocktail mixed with prosecco doc): these dishes illustrate how well gastronomy has been woven into the fabric of life on Isola di San Giorgio.
