Forget Como. We're hopping on the Garda train. The slightly "lesser-known" of Italy's great lakes, Lago di Garda is, in a word, magnificent.
Not many places can lay the claim that they have held a Michelin star for over 30 years. Esplanade however, can; since 1992 this spot has become iconic to Lake Garda's culinary scene. So, for some delicious food, not to mention the spectacular, panoramic views across Lake Garda, head straight to this gem of a place.
