A culinary tour is a must-do food experience that can be combined with a site visit.
Liguria has always been a land of sea but also of mountains. The scent of the woods mixes with that of the sea and the result is a unique cuisine in the world.
Light, delicate but with an incomparable taste that offers the curious visitor a riot of colors and flavors that are already a delight for the eyes when walking through the shops of Genoa or the villages of the Riviera.
Here’s what we’ll taste:
- Farinata, a dish whose origins are lost in the mists of time, made with chickpea flour, water, oil and salt
- The focaccia to be dipped in the cappuccino
- Pesto, only with Ligurian basil
- La Panèra: halfway between dessert and ice cream
