Gastronomy is...

For those who love good home cooking, a stay on Lake Idro is a must. Tourist operators can recommend the best restaurants in the area.

They are generally family-run ones where everyone - from grandchild to grandmother - does their utmost to ensure that every meal is a unique opportunity to experience the simple, genuine local hospitality in a happy carefree environment. Local cuisine offers traditional specialities to satisfy the most demanding gourmet.

Typical dishes include malfatti or strangolapreti (semolina and spinach dumplings), pasta with salmi, spiedo bresciano (meat on the spit), Bagoss cheese, grilled meat, fried fish, fillet of perch and grilled or breaded trout, washed down with well-known red and white wines from the Trentino region or Garda area.
