San Remo Italy

posted in Food Reports |

La Fontana [Corso Imperatrice, 39] is a Beach Restaurant in the south western end of San Remo, Italy.
We had an excellent seafood lunch at this establishment two years ago.

080510 San Remo La FontanaAfter a long and often very fast drive (speed sometime reaching over 16okm/h on the Italian Autostrada in the Mercedes C220 Hire car we were supplied by Hertz in Mestre/Venezia) we left the “A7″ guided by the onboard GPS and joined the D52 coastal road to try and find the establishment on the beach. After one bad start ending up in a dead end paking lot running along the beach front - we could actually see the Restaurant - we got back on the main road (Corso Imperatrice) and found a parking spot just meters from two years ago and walking down to the place which has recent new paint job and some other restauration work.

The food was still as good as we remembered it
…. we ended up with two large plates each of mixed battered / deep fried seafood  and grilled mix of all kinds of fresh seafood - washed down with beer and wine and we left once again satisfied on our way to Menton in France - just west over the Italian border.

Yes we did tell the staff about our own San Remo on the Indian Ocean beach in Western Australia :-)
