"We end up in this tavern because the waiter is a friend, and therefore to be fair I won't talk about the naïve service, in the sense of true and genuine. Small room but with three well-divided spaces: ground floor room, mezzanine and outside. Short menu written on the blackboard, excellent and full of Liguria. The fish rules. Fairly long wine list with unusual and many organic proposals. We chose a good sparkling Trebbiano that held its own with the more fashionable Proseccos. Then carpaccio of pink prawns and cot. Two first courses: pasta and chickpeas with cod and pasta with potatoes and mussels. Perfect. Second squid with vegetables in a pan. Fresh and soft that melted in your mouth. I also appreciated the leafy greens on the plate. To close, an honorable tart with bitter orange marmalade. Coffee with mocha, which won't have cream but still better than the horrible coffees in most restaurants. Bill of 103 euros for two. Very honest given the freshness of the fish and the loving care with which the shy and almost unfriendly chef puts into preparing the dishes."
