Participating Restaurant

Affectionately named after the public ferry service in Venice, Vaporetto in Hawthorn takes diners straight to the canals of the charming Italian city. Established in an old tobacco shop, chandeliers of handblown Murano glass dazzle from the ceiling, and a bar rests behind a long slice of white marble. The eatery of where Venice meets Melbourne will showcase dishes of salami's, vegetables and seasonal seafood in a casual homely atmosphere.   BYO is available every day for lunch, and Sunday-Thursday evenings.
