Gli spaghetti con le vongole del Ristorante 5 Maggio a Genova.
Qualche tempo fa, assieme a mia moglie, sono stato a pranzo nel ristorante pizzeria 5 Maggio, vicino a Quarto dei Mille.
Mia moglie, come di consueto ha ordinato un piatto di pasta con le vongole (e pomodorini) e non era stato affatto male (sia come qualità sia come quantità).
Vedere per credere!

To see all the photos I took in the city of the Saint click here:

The altar stands on a platform placed above seven steps. It is the work of Tiziano Aspetti (1607), and is crowned by three statues made in 1593-94: that of Saint Anthony in the center, flanked by that of Saint Bonaventure and Saint Louis of Toulouse, who were Franciscan bishops. On the parapet you can see two pairs of candle-bearing angels. The tabernacle dates back to 1742, as do the two embossed silver plate altar cards, the work of the Venetian goldsmith Andrea Fulici, which depict in bas-relief, starting from the left, the Miracle of the Severed Foot, the Apparition of Baby Jesus, the Miracle of the Mule, the Dressing of Saint Anthony and the Miracle of the Fish.

The Fieschi family was one of the major Genoese families. Of ancient origin – they took their name from the founder Ugo Fliscus – they were descendants of the counts of Lavagna who had begun to enlarge their fiefdoms within the Marca Obertenga in the 11th century. Originally from the Levante hinterland, the Fieschi had their feudal center in the Tigullio area, the Fontanabuona valley and the hinterland up to the Aveto valley. Here was the center of their power and where in fact the Basilica dei Fieschi was erected in Cogorno in the mid-13th century.

Where is the restaurant located:

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.
