The traditional foods of the Venice are linked to relationship the Serenissima had with the inland but more important with the faraway lands, reached thanks to long journeys by boat.
So you can find on the table baccalà (salted stockfish) from the Baltic routs, precious spices from Asia but also fresh vegetables from islands of the estuary like S.Erasmo, Vignole and obviously fish from the lagoon.
Venetians like to eat cichetti (appetizers) with a small glass of wine (ombra) either before lunch or dinner or often in place of those meals. Eating cichetti is mostly a social activity, you will see lots of locals hanging out in crowded bars and have their startes.

This osteria has a good selection of dishes, also for vegetarians, but great here is the fried fish.
The food is freshly cooked and vary tasty. The place is quite small and it gets crowded during lunch and dinner. Waiters might be not the most smiling, but who cares, food is excellent.

The staff there were excellent and the spaghetti we had was better than some of the restaurants it was surrounded by. If you don't mind standing to eat and eating out of a box give this little gem of a place a go. You won't be disappointed and you certainly won't be out of pocket. A really filling and tasty meal whilst on the move.
