Big news of culinary excellence on the shores of Lake Como. Chef Enrico Derflingher, from March, the 10th, and throughout the 2017 season, will delight the palates of the guests of CastaDiva, the luxury resort in Blevio inside Villa Roccabruna, historic home of the famous soprano Giuditta Pasta.

Elegant and simple at the same time, CastaDiva accurately reflects my values and my style. As often I say, just a few ingredients, 4 or 5 to the maximum, to create my dishes, the added value is the art of knowing how to combine and enhance. For people like me who has spent the last 20 years abroad, a resort as CastaDiva, awarded the Seven Stars Luxury Hospitality Award 2016, it is the best situation in which to be today, to return to admire this wonderful corner of Italy, while remaining in an international context”.
