[edit]- Locanda dell'Isola Comacina. The fixed-menu meal includes a choreographed show, with dancing peppermills, splashes of olive oil, and the host's "fire ceremony," in which he deploys brandy, sugar, coffee, and matches while offering a well-worn history of the island. The rigmarole is meant to exorcise a curse put on the isola by a 12th-century bishop of Como. Closed Tuesdays; open all week from June to September.
- There is also a small cafe which is open during the day for snacks and coffee.
