Paint the town...
AN ECCENTRIC SATELLITE of an already unconventional city,
Burano greets visitors from Venice with what feels like every colour
in the spectrum. Day-trippers are bound by waterbus hours, but
those who wish to see this lagoon island at quieter times can now
stay in a scattering of converted houses in town, once home to
fishermen and lacemakers. This is the latest venture from Venissa,
a Michelin-starred restaurant with rooms on next-door Mazzorbo,
