Dining With Gondoliers
Hiding in plain sight on Venice’s busy Ruga Giuffa is an excellent tavern. You should be able to spot Osteria Ruga di Jaffa by the gondolieri packing the tables at lunch. They come here not for the artsy Murano lamps but rather the house-made pastas and succulent roast pork.
A Party Boat in Belgrade
The Serbian capital is one of the continent’s best-value destinations, and maybe its hardest-partying one too. In warmer months, river barges along the Danube double as clubs. Hot Mess is a higher-end place, but even here the cover is only around £4 for a ‘splav’ (barge club) with an on-board pool, playing disco, house and RnB.
