"Venice is one of the most expensive cities in Italy. But, you don't have to be afraid if you wonder around a little bit in the town, you will definitely find a nice, and inexpensive places to eat. It's because of it's lack of agriculture, all the fresh produce had to be brought in from other areas. So that's why it's a little bit more expensive, than the other areas of Italy. But, if you walk around, you might find wine bars, which is the first, and the best option, where you can eat nice food. Which is a beccaria. That's how the Italians name it. You might pair, the thing you want to eat, with a Prosecco, which is famous in Italy as well, or another type of Italian wine, from the Veneto region. Fill up on tramazinni, which is a great lunch for you, if you're in Venice, that's what the Italian's do everyday. Eat in a pizzeria, where there are lots and lots of different pizzas, and a thick slice is not that expensive. So, if you get in one of those places, you have to learn, the difference between a ristorante and a trattoria. A ristorante is the most expensive one in Italy, especially in Venice, and the trattoria is a little less expensive. So, if you want to get in a nice restaurant, which has mid prices, you should choose the trattoria. The pizzeria will be, definitely the cheapest choice of yours, while in Venice."
