Lake Cafe, Como

We continued our walk around the harbour and sampled a fritelle sempilici, similar to a flat donut covered in sugar. A warm and tasty treat to enjoy on a cooler day.

After checking out some of the buildings and monuments we made our back to the Duomo Piazza where we did a mini bar hop, with our last stp being front row seats at Lake Caffe, where we could admire the Duomo while enjoying a couple of cocktails. We do love how drinks in Italy are often accompanied by complementary snacks. These snacks, like today, end up being lunch as they can be quite substantial and filling. It was a lovely way to spend our last afternoon in Como.

After a very relaxing afternoon we decided on take away arancini for dinner back in our apartment, which was delicious, before ducking out for our daily gelato fix. Can it get any better than this.??!!

Como has been a great stop for the last five days. We didn’t get out on the ferries as much as we would have liked due to the sometimes ordinary conditions, but the weather Gods are smiling and the next couple of weeks are looking good.

Tomorrow we head to Parma.Leggi altro
