Trattoria contemporanea In Lomazzo

Excellent! A well-deserved star not only for the cuisine but also for the friendly and informal service.

A pochi chilometri da Como e dal suo lago, nel cuore di Lomazzo e all'interno del suo affascinante contesto post industriale - fu cotonificio - del Fabbrica Campus, si cela un vero gioiello della ristorazione moderna: la Trattoria Contemporanea. Non inganni il nome, che evoca immagini di ristorazione popolare: qui siamo di fronte ad una fucina di idee gastronomiche capace di stupire e innovare. In cucina opera una giovanissima quanto perfettamente amalgamata brigata, capace e - a dispetto della verde età media - preparatissima. Con precisione alchemica, ai fornelli si coniuga (un pizzico di) tradizione e (molta) modernità senza tralasciare il proprio bagaglio personale intuibile anche della provenienza di alcuni ingredienti sorprendenti. L'ambiente della Trattoria Contemporanea riesce a coniugare perfettamente il fascino industriale con un design sofisticato. Spazi ampi, ambiente luminoso, tavoli ben distanti tra loro e cucina a vista. Il personale di sala, anch'esso fresco ma molto preparato, incarna una professionalità spontanea e una conoscenza approfondita della proposta culinaria, rendendo il servizio non solo impeccabile ma anche piacevolmente coinvolgente. Come da mia abitudine, quando mi affaccio per la prima volta in un locale dove la creatività la fa da padrona, opto per uno dei menù degustazione (il più corposo), in modo da affidare in toto il mio viaggio all'estro della cucina, pronto a lasciarmi sorprendere dagli accostamenti che verranno. Non scenderò nel dettaglio dei piatti (anticipati da una serie di gustosi e divertenti amus-bouche, generosamente omaggiati) per non guastare l'effetto sorpresa a chi vorrà seguire lo stesso percorso, ma anticipo che ci si trova davanti ad un continuo gioco di forme, consistenze e di sapori, senza alcuna remora degli chef ad osare, anche spingendo verso punte di aromaticità o piccantezza o sapidità. Un lungo - piacevolissimo - gioco, stimolante dall'inizio alla fine. Anche la carta dei vini e delle bevande non è affatto banale, e mira in parte a valorizzare realtà non inflazionate ma capaci di ottime produzioni. Concludendo, Trattoria Contemporanea non è solo un ristorante, ma un luogo dove la creatività gastronomica prende forma audacemente e sorprendentemente, rendendolo tappa imprescindibile per chi desidera vivere un'esperienza gastronomica non comune. Ogni dettaglio, dal servizio "confortevole" alla presentazione dei piatti, è curato con passione e competenza. Il conto è assolutamente in linea rispetto alla qualità e all'originalità della proposta.

A few kilometers from Como and its lake, in the heart of Lomazzo and within its fascinating post-industrial context - it was a cotton mill - of the Fabbrica Campus, lies a true jewel of modern catering: the Trattoria Contemporanea. Don't be fooled by the name, which evokes images of popular restaurants: here we are faced with a hotbed of gastronomic ideas capable of surprising and innovating. A very young and perfectly blended team operates in the kitchen, capable and - despite the green average age - highly trained. With alchemical precision, in the kitchen you combine (a pinch of) tradition and (a lot of) modernity without neglecting your personal background, which can also be guessed at as to the origin of some surprising ingredients. The environment of the Trattoria Contemporanea manages to perfectly combine industrial charm with sophisticated design. Large spaces, bright environment, tables well spaced from each other and open kitchen. The dining room staff, also fresh but very knowledgeable, embodies spontaneous professionalism and in-depth knowledge of the culinary offering, making the service not only impeccable but also pleasantly engaging. As per my habit, when I appear for the first time in a place where creativity reigns supreme, I opt for one of the tasting menus (the most substantial), in order to completely entrust my journey to the creativity of the kitchen, ready to be surprised by the combinations that will come. I won't go into the details of the dishes (anticipated by a series of tasty and fun amus-bouche, generously complimented) so as not to spoil the surprise effect for those who want to follow the same path, but I will anticipate that you are faced with a continuous game of shapes, consistencies and flavours, with no hesitation on the part of the chefs to dare, even pushing towards peaks of aromaticity or spiciness or flavour. A long - very pleasant - game, stimulating from start to finish. Even the wine and drinks list is not at all banal, and aims in part to enhance realities that are not inflated but capable of excellent production. In conclusion, Trattoria Contemporanea is not just a restaurant, but a place where gastronomic creativity takes shape boldly and surprisingly, making it an essential stop for those who want to live an uncommon gastronomic experience. Every detail, from the "comfortable" service to the presentation of the dishes, is taken care of with passion and competence. The bill is absolutely in line with the quality and originality of the proposal.

Starred restaurant offering a lunch menu for 30-35 or 40 euros. The dishes on the lunch menu are less sophisticated than those on the tasting menu but the formula is absolutely worth trying for its quality and location.

Here I found the best risotto I have ever tasted in my life. Every bite is a delight for the senses. This alone is worth the visit. Modern environment, young and well-trained kids guided us in this experience of games and flavors through ceremonies that made the experience dynamic and engaging. I liked some dishes a lot, others didn't convince me but it also depends on personal tastes. The open kitchen also creates direct communication with the staff behind the glass. In the room you can see everything... Even attitudes that aren't exactly starry.

Nice experience, we had a great time!

A beautiful experience from every point of view. Excellent ingredients, extremely interesting dishes, well cooked and excellently presented. Great courtesy and professionalism of the dining room staff. In the kitchen, as in the rest of the restaurant, a group of extremely well-trained young people are at work. Absolutely recommended.

A very pleasant and abundant dinner, I enjoyed the vegetarian menu which was above expectations. The dining room staff was welcoming, delightful and extremely attentive to the customer experience albeit in an informal manner. The venue is very well organized and furnished, an experience I highly recommend

Food: We tasted both the Istinto and Passione menus. There is also an additional menu and an à la carte selection available. There is no need to make a uniform selection for the table, which is (unfortunately) very rare for Italian star restaurants. The dishes are all very good, balanced and creative. The vegetarian dishes, which had a very intense taste, and the gigantic selection of bread deserve special praise. Service: The young team exudes enthusiasm and freshness. We were greeted with a smile and farewell with a handshake. We felt welcome at all times; Our dogs were also provided with water, treats and a blanket. The chef himself is often at the table in the dining room and personally welcomes (and says goodbye to) all guests. Ambiance: The whole thing is perfectly rounded off by the modern, playful and detailed ambience. A casual, cool atmosphere. Overall, we spent a very successful evening in the Trattoria contemporanea, which we would recommend to anyone looking for a special culinary experience.

Pranzo di lavoro con alcuni colleghi ed un cliente. Locale molto elegante, con un servizio di altissimo livello. Ho ordinato un antipasto ed un primo, devo dire di ottima qualità, specialmente il risotto. La cura dei dettagli è eccellente. L’unica pecca del pranzo è stato il dolce: un tortino al cioccolato con cuore liquido e panna montata: l’interno era troppo asciutto, quasi secco. Davvero deludente, peccato.
