Il Porticciolo

Il Porticciolo, open since 1972, is a cozy restaurant in the picturesque fishing town of Manorala. I discovered this restaurant by chance because the restarant i had originally planeed to go to was closed. Some would say it was a twist of fate... I ended up having dinner in surely one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The specialty of the region of La Spezia is pasta 'pesto' and wine 'bianchi', and I've got to say they are excellent, but as I had tried before, I decided to let the owner choose my meal... And she surprised me with some delicious spaghetti 'frutti di mare'. Ravioli 'bati bati', another local specialty, it was all so good.
