I have Ghillie’s ‘Tagine’ book, which is full of fabulous recipes. They’re mostly all the chuck-it-all-in-and-leave-it approach, which really suits me!

We loved Vernazza and we ate at various places and I honestly dont remember the names. They were all so amazing! You should have pesto and seafood as it is super fresh and the local specialty. In Venice I wouldnt say we had a memorable meal, but in Como we went to a cooking class from Varena (they took you to a small village about 10 minutes away) and the chef was Moreno. It was AMAZING – most memorable meal of the trip by far. It takes a leisurely 4 hours or so, but you have an amazing meal and learn so much!

I hope this helps! Let me know how your trip is! I am sure it will be amazing! Also, Venice might seem overwhelming, but I didn’t think it was too much, especially at night. The tour buses leave and it is quiet and romantic. If you get lost, someone will always point you in the right direction and it isnt too big an area so you truly can’t go too far! I recommend having a drink in the square at night – with the wine and string quartets and lights, it is just the most romantic place in the world! I hope you have an amazing time!

Yes there is a trail between all 5 villages. When we were there, the trail from Vernazza and Monterosso was closed due to rain, but we took the train to the last village, then hiked back to our village of Vernazza. We stopped in each village and had some food, gelato, or just wandered around. I am not sure you need a full day per village, but staying in Monterosso, you can do the full hike in one day or break it up into two. The train system in between village is super easy and cheap so if you dont want to keep hiking, you can always take the train home! I hope this helps! It is such a beautiful area – you will have an amazing time! Have fun!

We are honeymooning in Europe in a couple weeks and spending 4 nights in Cinque Terre (Monterosso). We will definitely take your culinary recommendations into consideration! Are you able to walk between all the villages? Would you recommend we do a village per day?
Any additional info you have would be welcomed!

This pie was tasty but it was just too greasy. It came out of the oven with a pool of butter on the top.
