You could be forgiven for thinking you’d just arrived in rural Bavaria at this popular Lake Garda haunt. On sunny days, multitudes of bikers and motorists pull over to tuck into sizzling meat straight off the grill washed down with German-sized pitchers of cold beer. Forsake the scent of alpine flowers for the afternoon and enjoy the aroma of sausages, pork on the bone and barbecued chicken.
The semi-alfresco restaurant sprawls through an olive grove with picnic tables set up around the barbecues. On crowded lunchtimes it feels more like a country wedding than a traditional trattoria.
Queues are the norm at weekends. Fortuitously, there’s a kids' playground to entertain hungry offspring.
