Caterina and Giovanna's old bakery has been transformed into a warm, modern
space with nary a garish Murano trinket in sight. Sit down amid a symphony of marble,
concrete and brushed steel and order plump prawns in a web of filo pastry or exquisitely
sweet tuna tartare and homemade gnocchi with scallops.
There's also a generous bar, where you can grab a coffee and homemade cake in the
morning or glasses of wine and platters of cheese come early evening.
BUSA ALLA TORRE €€
( 041 73 96 62; Campo Santo Stefano 3; meals €35-50; 11.45am-3.30pm; Faro)
Glassy-eyed shop-
pers are drawn to Murano's classic eatery for its sunny disposition and €13 set menu. Ar-
rive early for piazza seating with tempting views of glass showrooms, and settle in for sea-
sonal lagoon treats like fried
moeche
(lagoon crab) cooked with pine nuts and sultanas and
ribbons of tagliatelle with sweet winter
canòce
(mantis shrimps).
