Venetiis Restaurant chef Matteo Manzato discovered a long time ago that his passion was gastronomic fusion. After years of training and experience, he found his ideal combination, Malaga and Venice, a mixture that has made his guests’ palates fall in love.

However, tropical rhythms and flavors have always caught his attention, and he plans to incorporate new features in his kitchen and bar to start a new stage and projection in 2020.

The chosen products are, as usual, of the highest quality. The recipes will include typical recipes such as roast suckling pig, cassava with mojo sauce and creole hash, all with modifications and contributions from Manzato to achieve a unique experience.

If some already rub their hands with this new letter, we assure that the jewel in the crown will be the so-called Cuban Corner. Flowers and tropical fruits, the best selection of rums and music that will wake up your hips. Taking advantage of the good climate of Benalmádena and the Costa del Sol, the waiters and waitresses will be characterized throughout the year in typical Cuban clothes, they will distribute cigars to customers and every half hour they will take over the main hall to dance a rumba and liven up dinner at our clients.

In addition to a gastronomic experience, Matteo Manzato promised to achieve a true immersion in Cuban culture and set out to leave behind his characteristic Italian accent, to buy himself a collection of Cuban films and records and to start using expressions such as “tremendous belebele was formed” , “throw a rope” or “asere, what bolá?“.

And for lovers of good food and good dancing we also have great news. Once a month, our Cuban Corner will expand throughout the restaurant and an experienced Latin dance teacher will teach all our visitors to move to the rhythm of rumba, salsa, chachachá and mambo.

Our teacher has a long professional career

These changes at Venetiis Restaurant are the result of long reflection and a significant investment of time and capital by our chef and some friends who sold ballots for Benalmádena to raise funds. His friends, laughing, comment that it will be an unforgettable experience, and so does Matteo Manzato, who invites you all to come and enjoy your new bet.
