- Polenta uncia/ polenta with meat stew -the queen of the tables in the Como area as well as throughout the Alpine area. Polenta is made from a mixture of cornmeal and buckwheat flour and is served with a stew of meat or cheese and butter (polenta uncia).
- Sciatt -in Valtellina dialect "sciat" means toad, but it is actually delicious and crispy pancakes stuffed with melted cheese.
- Nuvola - typical cake from Como. The shape resembles a large plumcake, while the texture is something similar between pandoro and panettone, but much softer...precisely like a cloud! Inside it is stuffed with delicious apricot jam.
- Ice cream - alternatively, you can enjoy delicious ice cream by taking a walk on the romantic lakeshore.
- Caffè - because an Italian meal cannot end if not with an excellent espresso coffee.
