Press Release Summary = Liguria has long been known for its excellent wine and
exquisite olive oil, but this region in northwest Italy has many other delectables
to offer.

Press Release Body = The website "www.BlumenRiviera.co.uk" contains more information
about the culinary delights that await you in Liguria.


Liguria is a narrow strip located on the northern coast of Italy. It is known for
its Mediterranean climate and its unusual blend of mountains and sea that make up
its landscape. These natural circumstances explain not only why this region has been
one of the best kept secrets for travelers and holiday makers, but also why the
conditions are optimal for a varied and culinary culture that thrives here.

The mild climate and the steep varied terrain are perfect prerequisites for the
cultivation of grapes and olives. Hence, the entire region is characterized by many
small vineyards and olive groves that produce excellent wines and olive oils, which
has been known to many connoisseurs for a long time now. The combination of
mountains, forest and sea has defined the culinary culture of the region. The
Ligurian forests have allowed for many game dishes, such as wild boar and many
others. If fish is more your thing, then the many restaurants that dot the coastline
offer a great assortment of seafood on their menus to accommodate your palate. The
more traditional Ligurian specialties are often found at the agriturismo restaurants
tucked away in the hinterland. Most of these cultivate their own ingredients, which
ensure the exclusivity of the culinary specialties and are generally not produced
for mass consumption. As the Ligurian specialties are only produced in limited
numbers, the pleasures of the Ligurian dishes are generally reserved for locals and
the few holiday makers that happen to be here.

This, and the unique physical characteristics of the region make for a cogent
argument for visiting the Riviera dei Fiori (the Riviera of flowers). (For more
