Ligurian cuisine is made up of dishes from the culinary tradition of Liguria, a region that uses ingredients linked both to local production (such as preboggion, a mixture of wild herbs) and to imports from areas with which Ligurians have had frequent contact over the centuries (such as Sardinian pecorino, one of the ingredients of pesto).
A poor cuisine, typical of country people, mountaineers and sailors, made of simple, common and cheap foods, which has however become expensive, refined and full of ancient glories.

Fresh pappardelle with meat sauce

Le pappardelle fresche al ragù di carne

Fresh pappardelle with meat sauce.
I think meat sauce is the sauce I love the most.
In this case the chef on board wanted to give us this dish by preparing fresh pappardelle seasoned with an excellent sauce (for the other diners he seasoned them with mushroom sauce, which I don't like, however).
They were truly excellent!

Pappardelle (from the Tuscan pappare or, less commonly, from the Provençal papard) are a type of egg pasta very similar to tagliatelle but much wider. They are considered a type of lasagne, in the generic sense of "wide strips of egg puff pastry". While tagliatelle are a type of pasta with a typically Emilian-Romagnola tradition, pappardelle, although influenced by Emilia, are typically Tuscan in tradition. Pappardelle originated in Maremma and from Maremma they took on the strong flavours of sauces with game (wild boar, hare) or with woods (mushrooms).

I ravioli al ragù dell’Antica Locanda Luigina a Mattarana.
Diversi mesi fa, ormai, sono stato a mangiare una domenica a pranzo alla Antica Locanda Luigina (trattoria, ristorante, albergo) consigliatami da qualche amico.
Ovviamente il mio scopo era assaggiare i ravioli al ragù, il miopiatto preferito!
Devo dire che i ravioli erano buoni (come del resto anche tutti gli altri piatti) e saporiti. Entrano nella mia classifica ma non sul podio.

I ravioli al ragù della trattoria La Tagliola a Carpenissone

I ravioli al ragù della trattoria La Tagliola a Carpenissone.
Qualche tempo fa, su invito di diversi amici, sono stato ad assaggiare (o meglio a ri-assaggiare dopo molti anni) i ravioli della trattoria La Tagliola a Carpenissone, nel comune di San Colombano Certenoli.
Devo dire che erano molto buoni e gustosi! Purtroppo il mio pranzo è stato disturbato da alcuni problemi personali che non mi hanno consentito di apprezzare al meglio il piatto principale (i ravioli). La trattoria non si piazza quindi sul podio dei miei favoriti ma forse il mio giudizio avrà bisogno di essere riformulato in un’altra visita!

I ravioli al ragù dell’Albergo Ristorante la Veranda a Tavarone.
Qulche settimana fa, su invito di un visitatore, sono stato ad assaggiare i ravioli al ragù (in genovese i raieu au tuccu) a Tavarone, un piccolo paese in Val di Vara (nell’entroterra di Sestri Levante e Casarza Ligure).
Ho scoperto dei ravioli proprio buoni tanto che li metto al terzo posto della mia speciale classifica dei ravioli!
Assolutamente da non perdere!
Solo un suggerimento: prenotate perchè gli orari ed i posti sono limitati!

Qualche mese fa sono stato, su suggerimento di amici, a provari i ravioli a Sesta Godano (in provincia della Spezia) dall’Albergo Ristorante Cantarana.
Devo dire che erano veramente buonissimi, belli paffuti ed abbondanti ed il sugo (il tuccu) era altrettanto delizioso.
Assolutamtne un ristorante dove andare nuovamente!

The best ravioli with ragù in Eastern Liguria

Ravioli al ragù alla ligure

The best ravioli (raieu) with ragú (au tuccu) in Eastern Liguria.

For some time now I have been trying to keep track and rank what I think are the best ravioli with ragù (the real one is called tuccu from the Genoese tocco, a piece, from the piece of meat cooked for a long time that we use to make the ragù) of the trattorias in my area. By “my area” I mean the eastern part of the Province of Genoa and the relative hinterland (since I live in Sestri Levante).
I'll say it right away: tocco is not always used as a condiment, sometimes it is the classic but equally tasty meat ragù.
Mine is not intended to be a competition but just a way to let you all know the best places, in my opinion, to go and eat this excellent dish.
I hope no one feels offended (de gustibus non disputandis est) also because, wherever I have been, I have come away satisfied!

Obviously these are the places I have visited and for this reason I ask you to suggest new ones. I promise I will try them when I am home and then I will write a post about them.
Leave me your opinion on my ranking or write to me in a comment What are your favorites and which ones should I try?

My ranking:

(updated August 28, 2023):

  1. place: Ü Pellegrin a Romaggi -> il post
  2. place: Marchin a Borgonovo -> il post
  3. place: La Veranda a Tavarone -> il post
  • Out of Ranking: i ravioli fatti in casa da mia mamma -> il post
The others:

The following are all good but they don't enter my personal podium (I have to try a couple again because they were really good and maybe I could change the ranking after a second tasting) and I'll list them in strict alphabetical order:

No longer in the rankings:

I have been to the following a long time ago and they are either closed or I cannot find information to understand if they are still open:

Un bel piatto di fusilli con il sugo alla genovese

Un bel piatto di fusilli con il sugo alla genovese

Un bel piatto di fusilli con il sugo alla genovese.
Un piatto preso da una pentolone di pasta condita con un ragù di carni miste veramente buono.
La pasta erano i fusilli (che amo mangiare con sughi ricchi) perchè tra le spire raccolgono ampiamente il sugo mentre il condimento era un sugo alla genovese (o simil dal momento che c’era anche del maiale).

Il sugo alla genovese è un condimento bianco a base di cipolle e carne di manzo, tipico della cucina napoletana. Viene tipicamente utilizzato per condire la pasta, tradizionalmente i maccheroni della zita (ziti spezzati a mano, la tradizione vuole che da una candela di pasta si ricavino quattro ziti) o le mezzane.
