Torri del Benaco (Verona)
Albergo Ristorante Gardesana
of Giuseppe and Mirko Lorenzini
Torri del Benaco is one of the most interesting resorts on the east bank of Garda Lake. The small square of enduring beauty overlooks the lake and the nearby small marina. One of the main ancient buildings is the 15th century Palazzo del Capitano recently turned into an evocative hotel well liked by VIP and show business people. The restaurant - with a terrace overlooking the lake - brings prestige, as it is a famed gourmet destination thanks to its typical local dishes.
Buon Ricordo speciality
Filetti di persico del Garda al burro e timo
The Garda Lake Bass plays the leading role in this prestigious savoury dish. We use small bass so as to get fleshy fillets. Our special breadcrumb coating comprising the local produce such as the citron-rinds from the Benacense citron-trees and the thyme from Monte Baldo enhances the taste of the fillets. Our local Lugana Doc wine from the Peschiera and Sirmione hills will add flavour to the dish.
