Our Culinary Philosophy
At Taverna Al 29, we embrace the heart and soul of authentic Ligurian cuisine. Our dishes tell the story of Sanremo’s rich culinary heritage while offering fresh interpretations that surprise and delight.
Locally Sourced Ingredients
We believe great food begins with exceptional ingredients. Every morning, our chef visits the local markets to select the freshest seafood caught that day from the Ligurian Sea. You’ll taste the difference in our seafood pasta and grilled fish specialties.
Our vegetables come from small farms in the surrounding hillsides, often harvested just hours before reaching your plate. The olive oil we use is pressed from local Taggiasca olives, known for their delicate yet distinctive flavor.
Even our herbs are grown in our small rooftop garden, ensuring maximum freshness and flavor in every dish. When you dine with us, you’re experiencing the true tastes of Sanremo.
Traditional Recipes with a Modern Twist
Our menu honors time-tested Ligurian classics while adding creative touches. The traditional pesto alla Genovese gets a unique spin with locally foraged herbs that complement the classic basil.
You’ll find our take on trofie pasta features hand-rolled dough made fresh daily. Our focaccia recipe dates back generations but receives subtle enhancements from our kitchen team.
We’re particularly proud of our signature seafood ravioli, filled with the catch of the day and seasoned with a blend of regional spices. Each dish respects tradition while offering something new to discover.
The complimentary mini focaccia that begins your meal showcases our commitment to blending the old with the new—a perfect introduction to our culinary approach.
