🍝 La Scarpetta: A Hidden Italian Gem in Varenna, Lake Como Strolling through Varenna after exploring Lake Como? Don’t miss La Scarpetta—a cozy, under-the-radar Italian spot in the heart of town. Perfect for refueling after a lakeside walk, it serves up hearty, homey dishes that hit the spot. 🌟 What to Order Lasagna 🥘 A must for Chinese palates! Layered with a rich Genoese sauce (onion and pork rib ragù), it’s packed with meaty flavor and bright tomato notes. The sauce clings to the pasta perfectly—comfort food at its best. Maccheroncino alla Carbonara 🍝 A signature dish: creamy, cheesy, and deeply savory. Note: It’s on the saltier side—skip if you’re sensitive to salt, but carb-lovers will still enjoy the bold flavor. Barley Tiramisu 🍰 Italian tiramisu rarely disappoints, and this version (with a twist of barley) is no exception. Silky, coffee-kissed, and just sweet enough—save room for it. 💡 Practical Tips Hours: 12:00–16:00, 18:00–21:00 (timing works perfectly for post-lake lunches or early dinners). Costs: Tap water: €2.5 (not free, as is common in Italy). Cover charge (coperto): €2.5 per person. Total: ~€30 per person. Wash it all down with a glass of Prosecco—crisp, bubbly, and the ideal pairing with pasta. La Scarpetta feels like a locals’ secret, and once you taste the lasagna, you’ll know why. #LakeComoEats #VarennaFood #ItalianCuisine #HiddenGemsItaly #TravelEats
