description: "Pescallo is a tiny fishing hamlet tucked behind the headland from Bellagio, a ten-minute walk down a steep path from the town centre and a world away from its bustle. Trattoria Baita Belvedere sits at the water's edge, with a small terrace overlooking the harbour and a handful of wooden boats. The menu is short, seasonal, and built around whatever came out of the lake that morning."

Pescallo is a tiny fishing hamlet tucked behind the headland from Bellagio, a ten-minute walk down a steep path from the town centre and a world away from its bustle. Trattoria Baita Belvedere sits at the water's edge, with a small terrace overlooking the harbour and a handful of wooden boats. The menu is short, seasonal, and built around whatever came out of the lake that morning.

Order the missoltini, sun-dried shad served pressed with polenta and bay leaves. It is an acquired taste, intensely savoury and almost anchovy-like, but the single most authentic dish you can eat on the lake. The risotto al pesce persico, made with delicate perch fillets, is the other order to make.

A meal for two with local white wine runs EUR 50-70. Arrive early for lunch; the terrace fills fast and they do not take bookings for it.
