PANETTONE , PANDORO O FOCACCIA VENEZIANA?

In Italy, Christmas wouldn’t be complete without the traditional panettone on the festive table. This soft, airy cake, born in Milan, is a symbol of togetherness and tradition. Italians are divided between those who love the classic version with candied fruit and raisins, and those who prefer the "modern" panettone, strictly without any additions. And then there are the "dissenters" who choose pandoro, the star-shaped sweet bread from Verona, with its delicate vanilla flavor and a dusting of powdered sugar. 🎄✨

Here in Venice, however, Christmas isn’t Christmas without the traditional Focaccia Veneziana. Unlike the savory focaccia known in other parts of Italy, the Venetian focaccia is a soft, sweet brioche. Light and delicate, it’s the perfect companion for a festive toast or a warm cup of coffee. With its golden crust and the aroma of butter and vanilla, this simple yet extraordinary dessert embodies the warmth of Venetian Christmas traditions. 🍞🌟

Myfavourite is the classic Panettone full of candied fruit and raisins !!! What’s your favorite treat during the holidays? Are you 🍫, ⭐, or are you enchanted by the sweetness of the Venetian Focaccia? 🎁🍷

Savour Venice: Alice in Wonderland Event 🌸🍃

Here’s a glimpse into one of our most creative and magical events, inspired by Alice in Wonderland. With a playful and imaginative menu, predominantly vegetarian, we created a feast that delighted both the eyes and the palate.

Our joyful leaves 🌿 were as delicious as they were vibrant, offering endless flavor combinations such as porcini and truffle mousse, goat cheese and beetroot, zucchini and mint, pumpkin and lemon, and tomato, basil, and Taggiasca olives. Every finger food was carefully designed to perfectly capture the whimsical Wonderland spirit.

Charcuterie and cheeses were presented on elegant wooden trays, while colorful veggie crudités 🌸 were arranged on vintage crystal platters. Eggplant timbales were served in creative, vibrant cocottes. To complete the experience, the dessert buffet was a dreamlike masterpiece, one that even Alice herself would have been thrilled to stumble upon, with every bite full of wonder and magic.

This event transformed every detail into an unforgettable experience. Swipe to step into our Wonderland! 🌿
