Bar Trattoria Charlie In Varazze

16/12/2024: Opened in 1975 and after 50 years...still being there says a lot! it means passion, dedication and sacrifice. Today trip out of town with my son. Welcoming us with a nice presence and availability is Anna who, with knowledge and professionalism, tells us about the menu. It's surprising how such a young girl manages to convey the passion for her work. Behind the scenes there is the mother, the aunt, the brother, the cousin and the GRANDMOTHER! Already! The grandmother, the one who began the adventure in catering, in a very courageous place, as the place was completely surrounded by greenery and a little out of the way. But when you arrive and often find it full... well, it means that all the conditions are there. Anna served us a very tasty local cheese marinated in oil, followed by ravioli and fresh pasta truly homemade, by them. In conclusion, the top, a Genoese dish that is practically impossible to find. Really good desserts too. Gem of the house 2 liqueurs from their own production, one made with the infusion of peach leaves in wine and the other with medlar stones infused in alcohol (really good indeed... but the recipe is jealously guarded as tradition dictates ). Anna has a passion for music, which she manages to combine with the restaurant, offering musical evenings accompanied by good dishes and wine in the summer. At the end of the meal we also had a long conversation with our mother and grandmother: in addition to having eaten really well, today we left enriched by having met a truly special family! We'll be back❤️
