Family-owned Lake Garda restaurant recognised as rising star on the global dining scene by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants
___
Ristorante Lido 84 in Gardone Riviera on the western shores of Lake Garda has been named Miele One To Watch by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2019. This coveted award celebrates emerging global talent and recognises a restaurant that is outside the 1-50 list with the potential to rise into The World’s 50 Best Restaurants ranking, sponsored by S.Pellegrino & Acqua Panna, in the future. Chef Riccardo Camanini and brother and co-owner Giancarlo Camanini, who runs the front of house, will be presented with this prestigious award at The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2019 awards ceremony at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.
William Drew, Director of Content for The World’s 50 Best Restaurants, says: “It is a pleasure to welcome Lido 84 into The World’s 50 Best Restaurants’ family as it continues to build its reputation and presence not only in Italy, but on an international scale. As a result, the restaurant has been recognised as one of the world’s most promising dining destinations. We give our wholehearted congratulations to Riccardo and Giancarlo and their team for this well-deserved accolade.”
The restaurant was previously a retro ‘lido’, or outdoor swimming pool, owned by an elderly lady and her family. Opening in 2014, the brothers respected the site’s heritage, making few changes to the original building and using the colours of the lake as inspiration for the interior design. The glorious views over the water from the outdoor terrace certainly add to the dining experience.
