Itinerary

  • Cattedrale Di Como

    You will meet your local expert at the meeting point. Let's the food adventure begin!

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    Starting from the Cathedral we will begin our food tour to the first stop where we will taste cured meats of very high quality accompanied by a lovely glass of wine served in a historical wine shop.

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    In Como, locals have a tradition: eating pizza by the slice at a downtown location! If you really want to live and eat like a local, you can't miss the delicious pizza!

    30 minutes

  • Centro Storico

    You can't miss the traditional Nuvola cake: the shape resembles that of a large plumcake, while the texture is something halfway between panettone and pandoro, but much softer ... like a cloud, precisely! Inside it, a filling of apricot jam! After all, don't miss the ice cream and coffee, because a respectable Italian lunch can only end with a good espresso!

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    Here you can enjoy one of the most traditional dishes of Como: Polenta uncia/ polenta with braised meat. The queen of the table in the Como area as well as in the whole Alpine area. Polenta here is obtained by mixing and cooking corn and buckwheat flour and then served with braised meat or with cheeses and melted butter (polenta uncia). Also the famous Sciatt, delicious and crunchy pancakes with a stringy cheese heart.

Chiara was a wonderful guide! We had great food, wine and company. We love going to local places. Great tour to do on a rainy day.

Despite horrible weather, tour was excellent!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had horrible weather the day of our tour - it was pouring the entire time. But, that didn't prevent Janis from providing our group with a wonderful experience. We got to eat and drink at some delicious, non-touristy, places. Janis was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and each of the venues was great. We were all definitely plenty full at the end of the tour! Come hungry!
