L’ARIA
Blevio, Italy
L’ARIA gives a Lake Como dinner an outward-looking accent, combining Italian ingredients and traditions with Japanese techniques. Set within Mandarin Oriental’s botanical grounds in Blevio, it pairs a contemporary dining room with a terrace looking across the water. Chef Massimiliano Blasone’s approach suits travellers who enjoy a hotel restaurant with a distinct culinary direction. Choose it for an unhurried evening on the quieter southeastern shore, allowing time to appreciate the garden setting as well as the cooking.
