Da antico forno, che produceva pane durante la Serenissima, con un angolo adibito a tipica osteria Veneziana.
Dal 1973, grazie alla passione per la cucina e per l’ospitalità dell’attuale proprietario, il sig. Paties,
è meta ambita per coloro che amano essere ricevuti secondo le più nobili tradizioni dell’ospitalità. Si
presenta con ambientazioni tradizionali ed eleganti nella sua parte più veneziana, e lussuose nei suoi
locali che riproducono fedelmente l’accoglienza del vagone ristorante dell’Orient Express.
from being an ancient bakery with its typical Venetian
inn-corner during the Serene Republic golden years, it
became a restaurant in the 19th century, and since 1973,
thanks to its owner Mr. Paties’ passion for cuisine and hospitality,
it has been a much sought destination for Atraditions.
The Ristorante Do forni features traditional elegant ambience
in its most Venetian part, and luxury where it faithfully
reproduces the Orient Express dining-car appeal.
