Dorsoduro: Ai Fanti di Spade

Reviewed by: Tom from CA, review #20

When: 2002

Brand new small trattoria with a great chef, and some very delicious and different pasta and fish dishes.

A friend of mine in San Diego heard about this place from her cousin in Venice. It's on Fondemente Barbarigo, down at the far end of the Zattere in Dorsoduro. We had pasta with gamberi that was served in a toasted, hollowed out panetone.It was fantastic. One person had the gnocci served the same way -also delicious. After antipasti and the pasta, we were too full to try the fish, which is supposedly one of their specialities.

It's so new it's not in the phone book yet, but if you want a great meal, seek it out.
