Piatti Caratteristici
The flavors of Genoa are defined by fresh, simple ingredients, emphasizing herbs, olive oil, and seafood. Pesto is the most famous example, but many other dishes showcase the region's bounty.
Pesto Genovese
A vibrant green sauce made with fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano), Pecorino Sardo cheese, olive oil, and a pinch of salt, traditionally ground with a mortar and pestle. It's typically served with pasta, especially trenette or trofie.
Focaccia Genovese
A flatbread seasoned with olive oil and salt. Its dimpled surface allows the oil to pool, creating a crispy and flavorful crust. Often eaten plain, dipped in coffee, or topped with rosemary, olives, or onions.

Cappon Magro
An elaborate seafood salad traditionally served on Christmas Eve and other special occasions. It consists of layers of seafood (often lobster, tuna, and other fish), boiled vegetables, and a rich sauce made with seafood stock and olive oil.
Sardenaira
Often called 'Pizza all'Andrea' , this is a variant of Focaccia topped with tomato sauce, garlic, olives, and anchovies. It is considered the ancestor to the modern pizza.
