Restaurants we visited in Cinque Terre & Lake Como

All of our restaurants were recommended by our wonderful hotel owner Caro at La Casa di Andrea.

Our memorable last night experience was wine tasting --exactly my type of white wines from each of the five towns!  This coupled with bruschetta (I know it typically as tomato in the US--but here all kinds with anchovies and cheese and other goodness.  See menu here: Enoteca international wine bar

This is the specialty anchovy bruschetta

Each wine is unique.  I liked #1 and #5


Our happy last meal together, what a vacation!


If you like fried fish go here:  Trattoria de Oscar Unfortunately the restaurant recommended we not eat there because of all our shrimp allergies. Disappointing but very considerate of them.


Linguine con vongole is a Tsang favorite.  This was at a random lunch on the walk from the ferry to Villa Carlotta

Had to wait for the ferry after Villa Balbieri in Tremezzo and G & D had urged us not to eat where they had lunch.  Stumbled into a lakeside restaurant for pasta with mushroom


Enjoyed lots of anchovies.  Here they are with mashed up zucchini.  God do I miss this!


Random reco from our boat driver for a restaurant with over 50 salads.  Salads were just ok but David's amazing seafood stew was the winner. [Lake Como]


Restaurant Belforte is a special restaurant on the cliffs, seaside view in Vernazza
