This year, like every year, we too have lit lights and trees to transform La Fenice into a warmer and more intimate place to celebrate the holidays. So we created a Christmas menu that recounts the Lombard-Venetian tradition with authentic dishes and ingredients from and from the area. A journey of flavors that unites past and present, perfect for celebrating the holidays together.

Tradition and comfort

Let’s start our Christmas journey with a dish that embraces tradition: a risotto creamy, made with the precious aged Acquerello Rice, enriched by sweetness of the Delica pumpkin and the quince, an ancient fruit that tastes of home and warmth. The beans borlotti alla Veneziana complete the dish with a rustic touch, to take us back to simplicity of authentic flavors. A risotto that is a warm embrace, where every bite tells of the care for the materials raw materials and the passion for the cuisine of our territory.

Cod, a symbol of celebration

A dish that celebrates one of the protagonists of Venetian Christmas cuisine, namely Mr salted cod. A soft and delicate slice, cooked slowly to preserve its consistency and the flavor is accompanied by a fashionable green sauce from Lugana. This fresh sauce and fragrant recalls the vineyards surrounding Lake Garda, adding a touch elegant and territorial on the plate. A proposal that pays homage to tradition with lightness and taste, perfect for celebrate Christmas by the lake.

Meat: flavor and history

For those who love tradition, we offer the “priest’s hat”, a tender and tender cut of meat tasty, slowly boiled as required by the Lombard recipe. We accompany him with one black pepper bread sauce and salted capers from Lake Garda, which add a note savory and Mediterranean, enhancing the authentic taste of the meat. A dish rich in history and flavour, which brings the warmth of the holidays and the aromas of the holidays to the table our land.
