Forgot to tell you, have you passed by La Spezia.....I love that place tasted some nice Illy Cafe Cappuchino's with choco on top..superb.

Have you tried the restaurant by the marina at porto venere, it was quiet good

We passed through La Spezia a couple of times, tried to eat there one night but couldn't find a decent restaurant...

Only had an espresso in Porto Venere, no dining. Did you go to the restaurant at Grand Hotel Portovenere?

Best pizza's I had were in Cinqueterre, What I absolutley loved was the walkway in St Margherita...such a beautiful town. We had a Granturismo rented in Cannes and drove it till Portofino and got back.

I didn't, unfortunately my grand dinning was in Portofino "love that place". What I enjoyed was shopping, significantly cheaper than Cannes/France..lots of fred perry shirts..seems many wear them.

Yes indeed, everything is priced very reasonably for such a location. One thing to keep in mind though, a number of owners have shops in both Portofino and St. Margherita with same stuff on sale only cheaper in St. Margherita lol.
