Panificio Fratelli Bolzoni In Lonato del garda

25/03/2026: Writing I used to frequent La Tresanda many years ago, when it was located on a different street (which unfortunately I don't remember exactly), and my memory of it is decidedly different from my recent one. Back then, it was a welcoming, authentic place, with a carefully curated menu and an atmosphere that made you want to return. Today, however, the experience has changed quite noticeably. The first thing that stands out is a truly significant price increase, which, however, isn't reflected in the quality of the offerings. The cured meats, in particular, deserve consideration: the quality is modest and undistinguished, which is why I would strongly suggest reviewing the supplier or, at the very least, focusing on more refined products that are in line with the restaurant's ambitions. The presentation of the platters also seems rather sloppy, lacking the attention to detail that once made such a difference. Overall, one senses a departure from the restaurant's original spirit: less identity, less attention to detail, and a perplexing quality-price ratio. It's a shame, because the potential is there, and the memory of how it once was shows that much better can be done. I truly hope this review will be taken as a constructive stimulus to rediscover the quality and soul that made La Tresanda a point of reference.

16/02/2026: A delightful discovery in the center of Sarnico. We stopped here the night before Valentine's Day—we'd called to ask if reservations were necessary, but they confirmed they weren't. Luckily, the place wasn't crowded that night, thanks to the weather. The wine selection includes wines from all regions, where you can choose either a glass (from a selection of bottles) or a bottle to taste. We paired our red wine with a charcuterie and cheese platter—we couldn't resist asking for a second helping of the caramelized onion, it was out of this world! Price depends heavily on the wine selection, of course, but with a good red and the accompanying platter, we spent about €45 for two.
