No visit to Genoa would be completely without trying local delicacies. After all, if there's one thing Italians do well, it is food! The culinary scenery in Genoa is unparalleled—in fact, food is the primary attraction here in Genoa. Focaccerias can be found at every corner and there are hundreds of pasticerrias in town. Focaccia and pesto are local delicacies, but it's dessert that steals the show. You're in Italy—so it's somewhat of a necessity to wrap up every meal with a scoop or two of archetypical Italian gelato. In Genoa, no one does gelato better than Profumo Di Rosa. Every visitor who enters the hallowed portals of this cute gelateria is bound to leave hankering for more. The owner lavishes personal attention on every single customer and this makes Profumo Di Rosa very special indeed. Rosa's ice-creams are homemade and fresh—they're made from scratch every single day. You can taste as many flavours as your want before buying a scoop or two of gelato. Expect usual flavours like chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, and decadent flavours like pistachio, pear, cinnamon, and dark chocolate. If you're adventurous, try one of the special combinations such as Fiona (pistachio, coconut, and white chocolate)—we promise you will go back for more.
