We begin our tour at the historic ‘Da Virginia’ farinotto, an institution of Pietrese taste for over 150 years! Here we will taste the legendary yellow farinata and discover the white farinata, a speciality of the Savona area.
2. We continue with a tasting of a glass of local wine at Giovanni Battista Levo’s historic bottiglieria and mescita al bicchiere, a meeting point in the ‘caruggi’ since 1954.
3. During this special stage of the tour, you can immerse yourself in the history of Ligurian cuisine and savour authentic recipes prepared by the chefs participating in the project ‘La Gastronomica di Pietra Ligure – stories of cooking since 1955’.
4. A sweet and savoury stop at ‘CÃ du Din’ in the heart of the Piazza Vecchia where we will taste Taggiasche EVO oil, local honey and a selection of traditional dry pastries.
5. Let’s inebriate ourselves with the aromas of freshly baked focaccia and cakes from the Eredi Tortarolo bakery since 1956, where we will taste the traditional pumpkin cake, a sweet symbol of Pietra Ligure, simple, rustic, with a unique flavour.
6. When we think of lavender, we imagine expanses of fragrant bushes whose colour fills us with wonder… at the end of the tour, we can taste the ice cream flavour created by ‘Peccati Gola Tarocco’ who managed to ‘capture’ the scent of the lavender of Pietra Ligure.
