Having done a bit of research so far on food - these are some of the places i came up with. I absolutely want to embark on a bacaro one evening.
Historically, we have found trattorias to be our favorite, and find the michelin star restaurants get a bit tiring, especially if trying to eat lunch and dinner, its just too much.
Cicchetti - All'Arco , Timon All'Antica Mola, Al Merca, Cantino Do Mori, La Cantina, All Vedova
Others - Osteria Alla Testiere, Local, Al Covo, Da Carletto, Da Fiore, Al Gatto Nero, Antiche Carampane
Any and all recs welcome (including things to do) thanks!
As you'll be there in October, keep an eye out for moeche (soft-shelled crab from the Venetian lagoon). The hard shells molt in spring and fall so October/November is prime time for them. If you're partial to crab, these are quite good.
