 Best Restaurants in GenoaAmong the many delights that Italian cuisine has brought to the
world, Genoa can claim two as its own: the city was the birthplace
of pesto sauce, traditionally made from herbs, olive oil and pine
nuts. It is used in abundance on pizzas and pastas in Genoa, so
there are plenty of opportunities to sample Genovese varieties. The other invention now known worldwide is foccaccia, a kind of
flat oven-baked bread topped with olive oil and white wine (or
whatever you want to pile on). Foccaccia is staple fast-food in
Genoa - a relatively filling and cheap snack to grab on the
run. There are many excellent restaurants in Genoa. Many charge a
fixed rate per person, and are open from 12:30 to 3pm for lunch and
7:30 to 10pm for dinner; however, you''ll find many cafes and
trattorias that stay open in the afternoon. The Old Town area of
the city has many good restaurants (like Trattoria Sa Pesta), and
there''s also a good selection in Porto Antico, down by the
harbour. |
