Al Canton - Venice

No! Ho dimenticato di controllare le recensioni prima del mio errore! La foto sul menu e il cibo reale portato al tavolo sembrava completamente diverso! Potete vedere quanto è piccolo il gambero sulla forchetta. Confronta con la foto dal menu. Quasi tutti i frutti di mare in questo piatto-cinque piccoli pezzi di frutti di mare. Sembra che siamo stati completamente strappati. Abbiamo aspettato molto tempo per i nostri ordini di venire mentre altri lavoratori locali) che arrivano dopo di noi sono stati serviti prima. La cameriera era scortese. Vorrei aver letto prima le recensioni:

Per evitare a tutti i costi, il cibo che bagna in olio riscaldato nel forno a microonde.

I'm going to have to recommend you pass on this one. There's plenty of other (much better) trattorias in the area! The sign outside might entice other tourists: there's US, French, German, and Italian flags adorning it, they advertise free wifi, and they have hamburgers. Yes, hamburgers. We didn't go for the American food, though. Jamie ordered a sausage pizza and I wanted to test out the local tradition of cicchetti (like tapas, small plates of food you share and snack on). They had at least a dozen options for cicchetti! When I asked for his recommendation (i.e. his favorites), he simply showed me the display case in which they were held and asked me which ones I liked. *insert confusey face* I ended up just going with an order of naggi pollo fritto (literally, chicken nuggets) and a veggie samosa. I thought that the portions looked bigger in the display. The chicken nuggets were so tiny about half their usual size! I was disappointed in both the naggi pollo fritto and the samosa: the chicken nuggets were dry and over fried, and the samosa was not at all tasty. Jamie's dish was much better (hard to mess up pizza), but it was a little over salted to me. We also ordered an espresso and a cappuccino, both of which were served in throw away cups (as a side note, the food was served on disposable plates as well). The espresso was so hot it was difficult to hold and nearly melted the plastic cup I could smell and taste it in the espresso! Strange that they would serve it this way. Altogether a very disappointing lunch. But the free wifi was nice.
