23/12/2023: There is a myriad of restaurants in Sirmione, so we chose one that offered a few dishes other than pizza and pasta for vegetarians. Bar Moderno, like most others, was still quite busy with day trippers early on a Sunday night, but they were able to accommodate us indoors. I started with parmigiana melanzane, and was struck by how tiny the portion was. The taste was nice, but a bit dry and not a patch on the one I cook at home. My main course were gnocchi with rocket and salmon. Very good flavour, but a bit more salmon would have been even better. My partner enjoyed his first course of ravioli with tomato, basil and ricotta, and followed with a Greek salad. It was good, but not particularly Greek in its composition. We than shared a delicious pistachio mousse, covered with lots of chopped pistachios - probably the best dish of our meal. We had a glass each of an excellent Valpolicella Ripasso, which was mellow and velvety. Our bill was EUR85 (incl. a rather hefty EUR3 coperto per person), which I thought was overpriced, but the everywhere innSirmione is expensive. Service was ok.
