March 2023…// Hilton Molino Stucky Venice, the five-star hotel and former flour mill on Giudecca island has announced a series of Easter offerings to help families experience the Pasqua perfetta this April. From festive feasts featuring authentic seasonal dishes to spa treatments and even an Easter-themed cocktail, the hunt for Easter ends at this canal-side retreat.
A Gourmet Spring Awakening
Hilton Molino Stucky Venice’s new Executive Chef Ivan Fargnoli and his talented brigade will serve the most tempting of Easter treats across the hotel’s spoiling dining destinations, Bacaromi, Aromi, Rialto Bar & Restaurant and Skyline Rooftop Bar.
A series of Easter specials will grace the menu at Bacaromi restaurant, a locals’ favorite and laid-back family-style eatery, offering guests a cozy and genuine atmosphere and the opportunity to dine like a Venetian. The tantalizing Easter menu includes:
- Maccheroncini Pasta with Asparagus Cream and Bottarga, a local delicacy of salted, cured fish roe.
- Lamb Shank with Puréed Potatoes and Sautéed Raddichio Salad
- Traditional Colomba di Pasqua (a dove-shaped sweet Italian bread with candied peel, almonds and pearl sugar, enjoyed at Eastertime) prepared by Pastry Chef Giovanni Petrillo
Over at Skyline, the hotel’s rooftop bar – the highest in all of Venice – guests can unwind with a seasonal cocktail selection while watching the sunset over the city of canals. For an extra spoiling treat, they can even opt for a themed tipple! Inspired by the famous explorer Roggeveen’s discovery of the Rapa Nui island on Easter Sunday, the Rapa Nui cocktail will be exclusively available over the Easter weekend. A delicious combination of N.3 gin from the Netherlands (in honor of the Dutch explorer), Rosolio di Bergamotto Italicus – a fresh and fragrant aperitivo evocative of springtime – and homemade kiwi syrup and grapefruit juice for a seasonal and exotic finish.
Easter Indulgence at eForea Spa
Enjoying its own private entrance within the grounds of Hilton Molino Stucky Venice, eforea Spa has set the bar for wellness in the city and is a firm favorite of guests and locals alike. A relaxing hideaway overlooking the hotel’s garden, the spa includes a relaxation room, two fitness spaces with gym equipment, a sauna, a Turkish bath and a jacuzzi, with spa access available.
