Truthfully the food in Venice is not that great. Typical of touristy places, most of the restaurants serve food to people who will never return. Consequently, they don't need to please people over and over again and have mediocre food and poor service. One dinner we had was so inedible that none of us finished our food.
Thanks to a tip from our good friend, Mr. A, we knew that somewhere in Venice was a place called La Bitta and it would reportedly give us a good meal. Magnificent would better describe the food!!! At one point, Bob leaned over to the waitress and whispered, "Could I just have a little more of that Polenta?" She giggled and brought a bowl just for him!
Thanks Mr. A for the great suggestion of La Bitta. It was wonderful.
After we left La Bitta, we walked through a piazza with a huge church. But the church wasn't the big draw of the piazza; a local bar had set up a big TV and tables and chairs so everyone could sit outside and watch the USA/Ghana World Cup Soccer Game. How cool! You can see Bob and the girls in the last picture watching the game.
