The Socialite

Eating, drinking, having fun: if these are the imperatives of your holidays, in the Ascona-Locarno region you will find countless opportunities to socialize while enjoying the delicious local cuisine.

On the border between different regions and suspended between the lake and valleys, Ticino boasts a culinary art that mixes tradition, contamination and innovation. Thus, today, alongside the more rustic and genuine proposals of the mountain grottos, the more sophisticated ones of the starred restaurants are growing. Constant attention to local and seasonal products is favored by the high quality of raw materials, as evidenced by the wines produced on the Ticino hills, which can be tasted in the numerous wineries in the area. The gastronomic offer is accompanied by a cultural openness to conviviality and exchange: from the terraces on the lake to the squares, to the clubs and major musical and cultural events organized throughout the year.
