Island cemetery and church with restaurant serving cicchetti

"Situated next to the ruins of the old castle and the small church of San Michele, this 13C building, thought to have once housed a guardroom, is now home to a small restaurant serving regional, seasonal cuisine with a modern twist. During the week, the restaurant offers a lunchtime menu of top-quality snacks (the Venetian “cicchetti”), as well as a few “primi” and desserts." - Michelin Inspector

"On the premises, this restaurant sources most of its food from the surrounding farm, where vegetables are planted among olive groves for oil and vineyards producing red, white, and rosé prosecco. All the vegetables come from the gardens, making for delicious seasonal fare—something as simple as a mixed green salad is transformed into a special event. What isn’t grown on site—namely the meat and cheese—comes from hyper-local suppliers, while the pasta is, naturally, homemade." - Zoe Dubno
