Tarantella at Caffè Lavena
Opera composer Richard Wagner had the right idea: when Venice leaves you
weak in the knees, get a pick-me-up at
Lavena
(

;
Piazza San Marco 133/4; drinks €1-12; 9.30am-11pm; San Marco)
. The €1 espresso at
Lavena's mirrored bar is a baroque bargain - never mind the politically incor-
rect antique 'Moor's head' chandeliers. Spring for piazza seating to savour
caffè corretto
(coffee 'corrected' with liquor) accompanied by Lavena's nimble
violinists.
