Take a seat in front of the former stock exchange to savour the culinary classics of Venice and northeast Italy in a refined Venetian-inspired interior by Philippe Starck. The first-class, cherry-picked ingredients include veg straight from a “respectful cottage garden” and fish from sustainable sources. Examples include whole, line-caught seabass, perfumed in lemon leaf and cardamom, like in Rosolina, and cooked in a sea salt crust with sage-laced vegetables. Let’s not forget the delicious ice creams topped with hazelnuts from Piedmont or pistachios from Bronte. The lunchtime “Menu CAC 40” is a steal!
