Another vacation in France, and although we now have our trusted reference points from our cousins across the Alps, we felt the urge for national cuisine. We set out from Menton with the idea of a place in Bordighera we'd seen on Google, but once we arrived, we were drawn to a small outdoor terrace, right on the square where we parked.
A pleasant welcome, the kind that makes you feel at home, even though it was almost 9:30 PM. We weren't particularly hungry, so we started with a quick appetizer, farinata with stracchino cheese and fried anchovies, followed by spaghetti with clams and ravioli with butter and sage.
Now, here's a problem: the farinata is a whole farinata, the anchovies arrive on a (full) serving dish, and then at least 200 grams of ravioli and the same amount of spaghetti with clams arrive. Well, that was a really pleasant problem to deal with! The restaurant's philosophy is "you go to a restaurant to eat," and they keep their promises, not only in terms of quantity but especially in terms of taste. We couldn't have had better expectations. Especially at a truly fair price. Another place added to the "We'll be back" list.
Well done!

In Bordighera, this lovely restaurant impressed us with the quality of the products used in the kitchen, the young staff, and the customer service. This time, we had lunch with two huge salads (one with bresaola and one with Greek sauce) and the excellent, well-cooked farinata. Everything was excellent and beautifully presented. A place not to be missed.
