Sapori di Lago

The 20th edition of Sapori di Lago, held in Baveno at the Oratorio di Oltrefiume from August 21 to 24 and from August 28 to September 1, 2025, marked an important milestone: twenty years of the gastronomic festival dedicated to lake fish.

To celebrate the anniversary, the Associazione Cuochi Alto e Basso Novarese e VCO, chaired by Roberto Donderi, complemented the festival's classic dishes with a lake-style 'merenda sinòira', featuring fried bleak accompanied by Grana Padano cheese and a glass of red wine. The great classics were confirmed: fried lake fish, black risotto with river prawns, fish ravioli, carpione-style whitefish, and marinated trout.

The final evening on Monday, September 1, was dedicated to the charity dinner, with proceeds donated to the Baveno Red Cross and the A.I.B. of Invorio.
