Spaghetti with clams from Buca di SAN. Matteo

Gli spaghettoni alle vongole della Buca di San Matteo a Genova

Spaghettoni with clams from Buca di San Matteo in Genoa.
My wife's favorite Italian dish is probably pasta, or rather spaghetti, with clams.
When we eat at a restaurant she almost always orders this dish.
Some time ago we were in the center of Genoa and we had lunch at this excellent restaurant, Buca di San Matteo, and she enjoyed this dish of spaghettoni (which if I remember correctly were Senatore Cappelli) with clams and bottarga. Really good!

Dei tagliolini fresci al tartufo gustati a Genova

Dei tagliolini freschi al tartufo gustati a Genova.
Sono diventato un amante del tartufo abbastanza recentemente ma ora, tutte le volte che lo trovo in un menú, lo ordino.
Qualche tempo fa ero con mia moglie nel centro storico di Genova e siamo andati a pranzare in questo famoso ristorante.
A parte l’atmosfera molto curata, sfruttando i locali molto antichi in cui sono i tavoli, devo dire che il menú era eccellente e questi tagliolini freschi al tartufo erano veramente buonissimi!

A truffle is the fruiting body of an underground Ascomycota fungus. Most truffles belong to the genus Tuber, but there are also other genera of fungi belonging to this category including Geopora, Peziza, Choiromyces, Leucangium and over a hundred others. Truffles belong to the class Pezizomycetes and, with a few exceptions, to the order Pezizales. Truffles are mycorrhizal fungi, and therefore grow close to the roots of trees. The dispersal of truffle spores occurs thanks to mycophages, animals that feed on mushrooms.

The construction of a chapel was desired by the population of the hamlet of Velva and expressed their intention to the rector of the parish of San Torpete in Genoa, Monsignor Luigi Persoglio, who stayed in Velva during the summer. The latter suggested the idea of ​​building a sanctuary. The works for the construction of the new place of worship in Velva were entrusted to the architect Maurizio Dufour during the 19th century, who had already created several architectural works in Genoa and Liguria. During the construction, a first wooden group of the Madonna della Guardia by the sculptor Antonio Canepa was made in 1892.
