On our way home from Madonna di Campiglio we decided to make
a detour and go for lunch in Riva del Garda.

It was an absolutely splendid day and also La Festa della
Donna (Women Day) here in Italy.
We lucked out and just stumbled upon this place called Lido
Palace. They allowed Beatrice to sit
with us too.
|
Beatrice was fascinated by the ducks |
|
Graziano's Orecchiette |
Being such a warm sunny day, we got to sit on the nice
wooden deck, which had a slight lake view.

during the day it's Tremani Bistrot, at night Il Re Della Busa Ristorante and after hours Balì Bar a creative use of one place in 3 different ways
|
The waiter was young, pleasant and enthusiastic.
We just ordered upon his suggestion the simple local white wine by the glass. The food was
delicious and presented quite nicely.

The water was way over priced though, €5,50 a bottle for Acqua Panna is
stretching it a bit.
|
Trota Tartar
|
There was no
coperta (cover or table charge) but still, too much.

Three of the 5 tables were occupied by Russians, must be a
popular place in their guide books.
