A route of flavours through historic shops and recipes handed down for generations
Between market stalls and the windows of historic shops, central Sanremo tells its story through food as well. This food tour winds through the lanes of the old town, tasting the flavours of local tradition stop by stop: from sardenaira, Sanremo’s focaccia topped with tomato, anchovies and olives, to chickpea farinata, and on to extra-virgin olive oil from the Riviera dei Fiori and taggiasca olives.
The route winds through small family-run shops: it begins at a historic bakery for sardenaira and farinata, continues to a delicatessen to learn about the oil and olives, and ends with a tasting of stoccafisso mantecato, the cod-and-potato cream typical of the Riviera dei Fiori hinterland. Along the way, the guide weaves the tasty stops with glimpses of the old town, small squares and old-fashioned shop signs.
