This is not a place but it is still an institution

Cacciucco, the "C5"

tradizioni culinarie

da non lasciarsi sfuggire

Yes, Livorno even has some “not to be missed” culinary traditions… I know Italians who will do the long haul out to the coast just to eat a plate of authentic cacciucco (the C5 stands for the 5 letter Cs in the word cacciucco – the only Italian word to have 5 letter c’s). This fish stew is available with and without fish bones…you choose. The ingredients consist of a mix of fish, traditionally the leftovers or the less enticing selection, cooked down in a red sauce served over toasted bread (generously brushed with garlic).

 

This is a treat not to be missed out on – and, while you’re at it, follow it up with a ponce di rumme… that will get your blood pumping. Download The Brochure
