>For our stay in Italy in May/June I am looking for good restaurants
>and daytrip opportunities. Any recommendations appreciated for:

>- Bellagio, Como: restaurants

In Como I can recommend the following one, it is up to monte Olimpino hill so that there is a great view too:

RISTORANTE CROTTO DEL LUPO 22100 Como (CO) - 17, v. Pisani Dossi tel: 031 570881 Web: http://www.crottodellupo.it/

In Bellagio I can recommend a restaurant where I styed last year for a gtg with a ziner (Ira from Texas), it is non in Bellagio center, it is 2 km from Bellagio along the lake coast. Good food and great view (it is listed in the Slow Food book too):

MELLA, Via J. Rezia 1 - Bellaggio (S. Giovanni) Tel. 031/950205

S. Giovanni is the name of the locality (2 km from Bellagio) where the restaurant is located.

Johannes, when in May ? Could we arrange for a gtg ?

Ciao, Marco in Milan - Italy
