I Tre Mercanti
from: Fisheye Venice
Roberto Caruti is the manager and one of three partners in
I Tre Mercanti, a top-quality gourmet
shop that offers carefully selected foods and wines from throughout Italy.
(Signor Caruti is a native Venetian who spent 10 years with Gucci in Italy and
Britain; his wife is English.)
I Tre Mercanti, which opened in 2007, has an inventory that changes with the
seasons--including such delights as 50-year-old balsamic vinegar in 60-ml
bottles (filled from a production run of only 1.2 liters per year), specialty
olive oils from Italy's best growers, and nearly 100 pasta sauces.
Signor Caruti and his English-speaking staff will pack items for safe
transport or ship them to you with customs duties prepaid. The store is in
Castello, just a few blocks north of St. Mark's Basilica and the Piazza San
Marco.
