Hello to all the travelers in this community!
Last Sunday, I was planning to go for a bike ride, but unfortunately, for a few days now, my right calf has been hurting. So, with great sadness, I had to postpone my bike outing, and you all know how much I care about these rides because they are very relaxing for me and also rejuvenating for my body.
So, my friends and I weren’t sure what to do, and we came up with the idea of going out to eat seafood in a place that has become very famous over the years. It’s located in the province of Venice and is called Chioggia.
This place is also known as "Little Venice" because its narrow streets and bridges resemble Venice. If you look at my photos, this is somewhat true, although, of course, Venice has monuments and historic buildings that can never be compared to this small village—or to the many imitations of Venice scattered around the world.
Honestly, it doesn’t take much time to get to Chioggia from Milan. It’s mainly the final stretch of the road that is a bit slow-moving, and there you might encounter traffic jams that can make you lose quite a bit of time.
I had already been there some time ago, and it seems that even though it was Sunday, there weren’t too many people around this time. My friends and I took the opportunity to take a leisurely stroll through the village streets to avoid putting too much strain on my leg. But in truth, what interested me the most was the seafood lunch.
Chioggia is very famous for its fish market, which is unfortunately closed on Sundays. However, if you visit during the workweek, you can find great deals and buy excellent fish.
I went to my usual restaurant, which I’ve known for a long time and was recommended to me, where I enjoyed an excellent seafood fry that here is served with polenta made from cornmeal.
As always, everything was very good, and let’s say that even in terms of prices, they haven’t increased as much as in other parts of Italy.
I recommend visiting this place if you get the chance because, in my opinion, it’s worth it.
Goodbye, everyone!
