Lake Como Day Itinerary With Food Suggestions

We will be traveling to the towns around Lake Como (Bellagio, Varenna and Menaggio) in April. We are foodies and love to indulge in the local cuisine. Does anyone have a good itinerary for a day trip with food suggestions?

So my trip looks like I will include Varenna, Menaggio and Bellagio... I will look at the food suggestions, thank you!

Most people do include those three towns.

I prefer to take a boat down the lake and wander little towns too.

What other towns do you suggest? I plan to just bury since we are only there for a day.

Tremezzo and Lecco are wonderful Lake Como towns too. Don't include too much on your itinerary since your time will be limited.
