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.

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?

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:

Ravioli al sugo di funghi

I ravioli al sugo di funghi della trattoria Marchin.
Una divagazione dei classici ravioli liguri al ragù di carne è fare i ravioli al sugo di funghi. Se poi si è in autunno i funghi è facile che siano freschi e raccolti nella zona.
Tra l’altro sul sito ci saranno diverse foto di funghi freschi che ho trovato andando a cercarli in zona.

Questi sono dell’ottima trattoria Marchin a Mezzanego.

Il raviolo è un prodotto tipico della cucina italiana. Si può descrivere come un quadrato o tondo di pasta all’uovo ripiegato a contenere un ripieno a base di carne, di pesce, di verdure o formaggio, a seconda delle varie ricette locali.
Il raviolo può essere servito in brodo o asciutto accompagnato da sughi o salse. La scelta dipende anche dal tipo di ripieno.

Insalata russa di Marchin.
Immancabile antipasto in qualunque trattoria dell’Entroterra della Riviera di Levante: l’insalata russa.
Anche questa, come mi dicono poichè a me non piace, è una delle migliori della zona ed era della trattoria Marchin.
