Let’s take a closer look at Mahindra’s food adventures in Venice.
Talking about the importance of food in Italy and Venice, Mahindra wrote, “Like everywhere in Italy, food is a major concern in Venice too.” He posted a picture of a cafe signboard that read – “Things to do today: Wake up, eat gelato, nap, repeat.” He also posted pictures of an outdoor lunch table and delicious-looking gelato served with hazelnuts, and what looks like coffee and chocolate sauce. Commenting on the dessert, Mahindra said, “Even simple gelato is sometimes served as a delicious dish with “katoris” of condiments.”

Mahindra wrote, “A small, 7-table place that was given a new lease of life 5 months ago under the new management of Claudio and Claudia – and gifted a new lease of life themselves by getting married 3 months ago.” He further added, “They are warm and friendly, and offer an experience that makes you feel like you are a guest in their home kitchen. The food is a wonderful combination of flavours, with ingredients lovingly sourced and named. Excellent.”
