Traditional osterie serve mouthwatering farinata and authentic pesto pasta alongside family-run trattorias dishing up fresh seafood. Stay in charming boutique B&Bs housed in converted palazzos with original frescoes. Getting around is best done on foot, though metro stations at De Ferrari and San Giorgio connect you to the wider city when your legs need a break.
