Answer 1

First off, I am so Jealous.

Mornings...Foccacia and a cappuchico

Any seafood ....you are basically on the water the seafood is fresh

Liguria is known for their pesto and Minestrone Soups

Buon Viaggio

Answer 2

genoa is famous for its focaccia which is a type of bread but soft and thin and..much better!

then it is famous for its focaccia al formaggio: basically a thin layer of bread with melted stracchino cheese in the middle

farinata:chickpea mix baked..which tastes better than it sounds

troffie al pesto--basilico sauce

pansotti al sugo di noce-- walnut sauce

Recco, which is a bit out of genoa is famous for its focacce, but genoa is full of "panetterie" you just go in the bread shop and ask... restaurants are good almost anywhere!

BUON APPETITO!

Answer 3

I'm going to link to my personal website about Genova, including info about some GREAT restaurants.  You really can't go wrong in Genovese restaurants, as they aren't touristy and almost all serve local specialities.  The first tip on my website is about Sa Pesta, which is truly a hole in the wall that locals absolutely love.  I will say, however, that the Indonesian restaurant we ate at was the highlight of our culinary experience in Genova.  If you do get sick of pesto DEFINITELY go there for dinner.  It's fabulous.  Addresses and reviews below.
