"La Fagurida is a cozy trattoria in a stone farmhouse that’s been managed by the same family in Tremezzo since 1974. There are two things this inviting restaurant with panoramic views does well: polenta made the classic way, topped with melted semuda, brown butter, sage, and garlic, and the lavarello, a freshwater whitefish. La Fagurida’s knows that simple preparation is always better—just olive oil and salt are all it takes to elevate their dishes to another level. Since this spot stays far away from creative takes, you'll find that traditional Lake Como dishes are faithfully represented, including a great braised beef for only about €20.
