Shopping
Genoa's shopping heavens are on Via
XX Settembre, Via Roma, Via
Macelli di Soziglia and Via
Luccoli. The Mercato
Orientale is a market that sells
every kind of fresh produce and
ready made food, whereas the STANDA
supermarket chain on Via Settembre
46 is an ideal place to stock up on
more durable souvenirs like bottled
pesto sauce or wines.
Dining
Most of the budget-friendly
establishments are concentrated
around the seafront, and the closer
to the city, the pricier the
restaurants tend to be although they
usually come with more upscale
service and better quality food.
Hunt around Piazza della Vittoria,
Piazza San Matteo, Piazza
delle Erbe, and Via Quarto.
Nightlife
Genoa's nighttime haunts are mostly
concentrated in the area between
Piazza Sarzana and Via San
Lorenzo. The Piazza Delle
Erbe, Piazza San Donato and
Via San Bernado tend to be
swept off its usual timid feet by
the lively crowds on weekend
nights.
