This is the place in Tremezzo where we had most of our meals. Very near where we were staying, at the Piazza Roma, by the Lago itslef, a small ristorante without a name, catering good home made style food for Italians - and some tourists, like us!
The menu was always tempting - and so were the prices! And the last days we were in Tremezzo, I opted for the full fare to feel more Italian!
I had the antipasto de la casa, an abundant plate of locals cold cuts (bresaola, parama ham, coppa) with a side dish of vegetables (pictured above): pickeled onions, artichokes, and beans. All delicious. I had this and dessert as a full meal other days!
Among the many primi piatti, mostly different types of pasta, I chose the simple fresh tagliatelle al pomodoro (fresh tomato sauce) with a leave of fresh basil.
We had the
pesce del lago as
secondi piatti: a grilled lake di Como fish the size of a very large sardine.
Are you already feeling you had too much? No? Good, because then comes the cheese: a local mountain cow milk cheese (aged about three months).
And as you have guessed, I am a fan of Tiramisu, so I gave it a try!
It was too sunny outside and the dining room in the first floor, a cozy room with only five tables, had a splendid view! What agreat Friday! I had only mineral water, wine does not do me any good for lunch when it's hot.
