I recently saw on his video that Rick dines at the Restaurant Raphael (sp)? on the canal near the Rialto Bridge in Venice. I can't find it anywhere on the net or in his Venice 2010 book. Please give us the address as we are traveling to Venice in 5 days.
Hmm. The Italian spelling for Raphael is Raffaele and there is a restaurant by that name in Venice, but it's not anywhere near the Rialto. It is, however, on a side canal down near St. Mark's. http://www.ristorantedaraffaele.com/index-eng.htm There are pictures at that website that might be enough to confirm if it's the same place.
