Pizza, Wine & Olive Oil
You can find these typical Italian products everywhere around the lake. Originally, the Trentino cuisine was strongly influenced by the Austro-Hungarian Empire to which the region belonged until 1919.
With the passing years, the “mountain cuisine” adapted harmoniously to the Italian style, while remaining faithful to the typical Trentino flavors.
Do not miss the polenta and goulash, with a choice of mountain cheeses or mushrooms. Among the first courses we recommend you "strangolapreti", a simple but exquisite dish, delicious dumplings made of spinach and breadcrumbs, served with butter and sage. As a main course we recommend “Carne Salada”, thinly sliced lean beef, marinated in salt and herbs, typically eaten raw (carpaccio) or grilled, and often served with a side of beans.
The trout is the most typical fish of Lake Garda. This prized fish is often caught in the crystal clear inland rivers and is mainly served grilled.
The king of local delicacies is the extra virgin olive oil from the Lake Garda area, which is the most northern region in Europe where olive trees grow. Don't forget to buy some to take home with you.
The traditional wines of Trentino are: Nosiola, a fruity white wine with a very delicate flavour, and Marzemino, a warm and fruity red wine. This is a class A wine loved by Mozart for its unique scent of violets.
