"Trattoria al Gatto Nero—or the Black Cat—an institution on the brilliantly colored lagoon island of Burano, has been under the same management since 1965. It’s a wee bit stuck in time, and little has changed on chef Ruggero Bovo’s largely seafood menu in many years. But that’s why people come back. There are no fireworks here, but you know that whatever's on your plate will be fresh. The risotto buranese, with locally sourced goby fish, is a Gatto Nero classic." - Anne Hanley
