Focacceria Manuelina Recco In Recco

14/08/2025: 2025: A traditional stop. For the first time in twenty years, I couldn't eat Ligurian-style ravioli. I recovered from the shock and consoled myself with some wonderful agnolotti with roast beef sauce, a tartare with toma cheese, and Krumiri di "Mosto" with custard. Thank you, Fabio, and all the staff for being there. 2024: This year, I managed to stop in Campo Ligure twice, and both visits ended at my favorite restaurant. Superlative as always. A plus offered by this little spot in the Ligurian mountains, not far from the A26 motorway, is Fabio's mastery, not only as a chef but also as a sommelier. The Dolcetto paired with ravioli and rabbit proved superb. The stop was further enhanced by the opportunity to visit the Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary. The village itself is also very characteristic, with an exceptional climate. As is now tradition, we stopped in Campo Ligure on our way back from vacation in Liguria, and as always, we stopped at Caccia C'a Bugge. What can I say? Fabio outdid himself once again. The pesto-filled mandilli and Ligurian-style ravioli were exquisite, not to mention the stuffed rabbit and the Fassona roast beef. Everything was delicious, made even better by a Verdicchio Superiore recommended by his son, the restaurant manager. Over the years, the restaurant has added a summer terrace and staff in the kitchen and dining room, a testament to the growing customer loyalty to this standard-bearer of Ligurian cuisine and fine drinking. The years pass, but the story of our love for Fabio's cuisine, which began way back in 1992, continues unabated, awaiting next year.

14/08/2025: Excellent lunch, but the place was too hot inside. We'll be back in the winter.
