@ilmercantevenice - Venice, Italy One of the most pictoresque cities in the world, no surprise it serves as the main location for The Tourist, with Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie (one of my favorite movies ever). Located in front of the Basilica Dei Frari, one of the most suggestive areas of the city. A non-stop research and experimentation of flavors, fresh products and a fine visual ornaments complement the incredible experience that Il Mercante offers. The historic venue is open since 1870, and the 2016 renovation gave the tales-rich location a new charming bar, maintaining the original paintings and the original design, with a modern touch. Taking the Italian tradition of cocktails (especially the Spritz, taken very seriously around here), mixing it with a young and innovative spirit, and creating fresh and delightful cocktails, paired with Italian finger food, to enjoy in a prime location. “La dolce vita” could easily be starting here. — Words by @theozarnicki — #gentscafe — 📩 Subscribe to our Newsletter, a bite-sized read about men’s lifestyle to enjoy over a coffee or a nice cocktail.
