Liguria is one of the most important region for what it is known as the "Mediterranean cuisine". Liguria inland cooking is based mainly on the natural products that have always existed in the region.The olive oil is excellent here and the grapes make the wines very good too. Many places have their special dish but you can find almost everywhere focaccia and the Pasqualina beet greens pie, ravioli with pesto (the famous sauce out of that tiny plant called basil) and pansoti with walnut sauce. After a long walking around you deserve it.
