  • It is kind of typical in Italian tourist places that both a service charge (servizio) of 12 % and a charge for bread and cutlery (coperto) of 1 or 2 Euro is added to the bill. So keep that in mind when calculating your budget or thinking about a tip.
    Apart from that the prices for drinks are often not displayed on the menus outside of the restaurant. Compared to the cheap pasta or pizza, the drinks might come very expensive.

     Venice is so photogenic and that San Giorgio Maggiore looks sooooo good. I am still waiting for the day when I will see Venice...Norman :)

     Beautiful opening shot! I would love to go back to Venice one day to explore those small alleys & waterways some more and see the islands - also the Rialto Market which we must have missed. Not sure we'll bother with the pubs though - plenty of them here!
