Vecchia Malcesine

Creative Italian / Lacustrine · Malcesine · Malcesine, Lake Garda · Michelin One Star · Chef Leandro Luppi

Vecchia Malcesine is a hidden jewel above Malcesine's medieval center on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, accessible through an olive grove garden that opens onto a 180° panorama of the lake. Chef Leandro Luppi — who has held his star for 19 consecutive years — draws on the lake's ecosystem: tench, perch, whitefish, lake shrimp, and the extraordinary Garda extra virgin olive oil. Two tasting menus (Qcina 24 and Our Classic) offer either the latest creations or the iconic signatures.
