La Baracchetta di Biagio... a Recco!
Going and tucking in a delicious just-taken-out-of-the-oven focaccia at Biagio's is a byword with the arrival of spring in the Riviera. At Baracchetta's you can really breathe the holiday-time atmosphere, here relaxation and cheerfulness really reign. Wearing jacket or tie is not required, here you are given open space "to glut yourself " on simple and genuine stuff , besides you can rediscover the locals' sincere way of being. He may look like a rugged person, but Biagio doesn't seem totally Genoese (as on the other hand he is), his glee and his good mood, alternated by some tipically Genoese dialect expressions (i.e. Bel** type...to avoid any misunderstanding), make him a figure sought by everybody. However glee and cheerfulness are only an aspect, Biagio is one of the greatest masters of Focaccia with Cheese, a historic memory of the product, he has spent most of his life in the middle of focaccia ; try and ask him , you will be told : "When I began I wasn't tall enough to get to the counter of the bakery where I started working as a boy, then little by little I shifted to the oven section and so for 30 years, just pardon me whether it's not enough!
When Biagio, more than 30 years ago, opened his Baracchetta and he specialized himself in the product which has made the reputation of the gastronomical capital of Liguria, it became soon a touchstone for many people. At Biagio's in Recco is the right place...in order to indulge your whims of focaccia with cheese!!!!.
