Thanks for the tour!
I have never been to Venise :( Maybe one day... And when I go, i'll try to avoid the tricks of the restaurants: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/jan/22/venice-authorities-step-in-after-four-tourists-charged-1000-for-meal
hahaha :) Hope it was cheaper for you!
Well I was living in Italy that year and everytime I visited Venice it was for a day never stayed the night. So I only had a bite to eat for lunch and coffee, nothing for breakfast or dinner. And I was travelling that year so pretty experienced I was, stayed away from souveniers.
Long story short, it was cheap for me :)
