Contemporary Mediterranean cooking is how the chef describes his
cuisine, traditional with a modern twist. The reputation of this
restaurant has grown to such an extent that it now draws people from
hundreds of miles around and you will have to book...
The owner, Leandro Luppi, is one of the best chefs in the whole of
the Veneto region and the way he and his family run the restaurant is
testament to their immense passion.
Before I even get to some of
the fabulous dishes on offer I must mention the restaurant itself.
Housed in a 17th century villa the view across Lake Garda has to be seen
to be believed.
Sitting at one of the window tables on a summer evening
is an unforgettable and indescribable pleasure, even before the arrival
of the wine or food you feel that life has suddenly taken a turn for
the better.
If life was good before the arrival of the
food it becomes positively euphoric afterwards. I would suggest you try
the seafood from the lake taster menu; it allows a
fabulous sampling of all the lake's seafood.
The Lake Garda tuna
is an interesting dish and like nothing I have ever had before. It is
not tuna, which being a salt water fish, is not found in the lake. Amazingly it is carp but Leandro has found away to not only make this
fish edible but very tasty too. The way it is served is also very
different but I will leave that surprise for you to discover if you
visit.
Don’t want so much seafood? Try the area menu which
features many local classics like polenta and gnocchi and for the brave
there is also snail, something I love but Maria can’t stand. This menu
is really great value .
