da Bepi in Venice is another place in Venice recommended by my friend the Italian-American who knows Cannaregio, better I might say than Google which located it a quarter of a mile away from its real site.
It's a placeI orinarily would pass by, having wait-staff out from talking up the place which has "tourist menus" in four languages. I had two dishes off it.
First I had spaghetti with mussels, quite nice but not outstanding; then moved on to a fresh whole sea bass, grilled with polenta and potatoes, again nice, but no fireworks - even with lemon and salt and pepper it lack something; a white sauce, a red pepper sauce, something.
With 50 cl of house red, no bottled water and a corrected espresso, my bill was 49.30 E and I'm not sure I'll return in two years.

After another afternoon amidst the Tiepolos and Massari's at the Schola S. Giovanni Evangelista I headed back to Mestre and dinner at an old favorite - Moro.
