THE LOOK
Who doesn't love a huge bowl of pasta! This pumpkin ravioli with sage butter (14 Euros) was the perfect lunchtime treat, sitting out in the sunshine on the side of the canal. My favourite part was that they left the freshly grated Parmesan on the table!

THE TASTE
I actually miss this pasta! I was worried that pasta would be too heavy for such a hot day but the light and fresh pumpkin filling meant that it was a surprisingly light lunch. Of course, I had to make the most of the cheese and heap it on but the saltiness from that balanced out the sweetness of the pumpkin well.

THE PLACE
The location of Bellariva is perfect. It's located on the left hand side of the canal so it's a great suntrap and you can watch rowers practicing along the canal. The staff were so friendly and appreciated us talking to them in Italian. I would definitely go back.
