Seeking Ligurian Cuisine

[famdoc]

With Cinque Terre closed, can anyone suggest a Manhattan restaurant featuring authentic Ligurian cuisine? Think pesto with potatoes and green beans, fritto misto, orata, branzino...

Try Perbacco. I went with a group of Genovese visiting New York and they loved it. They said it was not 'every day' but special Ligurian style cooking.

I'm sad to hear Cinque Terre closed. I dined there years ago, loved it and always intended to return....

That's the story of many quality but non-particularly-popular restaurants, I suppose.
