I asked for a margarita pizza and the worker at the front gave me a cheese pizza. I clarified that I wanted a margarita with tomato, basil, and mozzeralla, and he said this is it.

We had the Arancino with Ham and Cheese (4,50€). We were exploring the area in the morning so we asked for takeaway, or to go. The lady warmed it up for me. Biting into it was so intriguing. The exterior was a gritty corn exterior. We think it was a corn meal exterior? The inside was very cheese. The ham was rich and decadent. Definitely a nice snack and worth trying when exploring but it was definitely pricy for a small snack.

Nice warm wooden decor and seating and away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas. It opens as early as 7am to serve breakfast for the locals and closes as late as 10pm for a evening snack. We had a look at their menu and they sell pizzas and pastas for lunch too. Typical cafe food in a relaxing atmosphere. That evening we were only accompanied by a few customers. Staff were efficient, cleaning away making sure the place is pristine. Food was presented beautifully which made it a little more special than the average cafe. That evening we came for some desserts and ordered the following: Apple torta was lovely and juicy, sweet with no signs of tartness and custardy. The torta della nonna (custard ricotta) was lovely and smooth. The pastry was moist and light too allowing the creamy filling to shine through. If anyone is staying in the Sweet Venice bed and breakfast and looking for a decent breakfast place then I highly recommend this little cafe. Not overpriced like many cafes further on.

Today, spread across six generations, Rosa Salva is a renowned pastry shop situated near the Basilica dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo in the Castello district of Venice. This establishment offers a variety of traditional Venetian pastries, including bignè filled with zabaglione cream, Cannolo Siciliano, and pistachio croissants as well as homemade gelatos. My partner, our friends, family member, and I arrived in the mid-afternoon on a Sunday after our visit to Murano and the gondola ride nearby for some sweet treats. The outside terrasse was busy in the late morning and early afternoon, but beware of the pigeons. Some of us went inside and unfortunately didn't see much of a selection. Instead we opted for some gelatos such as mango & coconut , strawberry and lemon, and mango. All accompanied a nice wafer. They were good and fulfilled our needs. The price was comparable to the area. The staff was not welcoming as they need to be a bit motived. A real shame for a place that has a long tradition in Venice.
