In this part of Veneto, the rivers that flow through landscapes and ancient cities become living metaphors for the connection between the land and its people. Here, gourmet cuisine is not just an assortment of delicious dishes. It's a culinary experience that touches the soul, unites communities, and creates an unbreakable bond with the land. Each dish is a chapter in a larger story, a story that unfolds through unique flavors, aromas, and sensations.
Every bite is a story, every aroma a memory, and every meal a work of art.
Creativity and Contrasts at Mainor
Nestled in the heart of Hotel Calvi, Mainor Restaurant by Elia Soldera is a culinary experimentation lab. Its cuisine is a journey between the 'major' and the 'minor,' blending the essence of Venetian tradition with the audacity of international flavors. Here, the river becomes a flowing metaphor that courses through a kitchen of contrasts, inspired by the seasons, local produce, and nature itself. Located in the picturesque historic center of Serravalle in Vittorio Veneto, often referred to as the 'Little Florence of Veneto,' Hotel Calvi has been a landmark for travelers and tourists since 1912. Passionately managed by Alfredo and Flora's family for generations, both the hotel and the restaurant are gems of authenticity and quality. Complementing the experience is an idyllic garden, where the Meschio River flows gently, surrounded by an English lawn, blooming roses, and lemon trees: a peaceful oasis that enriches the gastronomic journey.
