Nathan and Craig have just visited the fantastic Caffe Florian in St Mark's Square. We were met outside by the 'Direttore' Franco Ottaviani. We then had lunch with Franco, where he explained the history behind Italy's oldest coffee house. (See video) We then met Silvia Zanella who handed us an envelope containing a huge donation, collected from the staff at Caffe Florian. I couldn't believe it, what a wonderful gesture, it really left a tear in my eye.
Below are some photos of our visit, with Franco, Silvia and the waiters. What a wonderful experience, and we thank them from the bottom of our hearts.
The visit really made the end of our trip special, and I don't think any Venice trip would be complete without a visit to Caffe Florian.
Thank you!
