Riccione and the Romagna region: the quintessential gourmet holiday

Our journey in the culinary tradition of our region starts right here in Riccione...

...where the main ingredient for some mouthwatering recipes is fresh, locally sourced fish. You can try endless seafood dishes, to enjoy  in a romantic and relaxed atmosphere, as many restaurants have seats overlooking the sea or are located directly at the beach, so that guests can dine with their feet in the sand.

If you love local, authentic food, we suggest that you try some typical products, such as the extra virgin olive oil and honey produced in many of the hilltop villages surrounding Rimini and Riccione. Among them you’ll find beautiful Mondaino, famous for its delicious pecorino (goat cheese) aged in caves according to a tradition that dates back several centuries.

The hills surrounding Rimini are also well-known for white truffles, that you can taste in Pennabilli, Talamello or Santarcangelo, only to suggest some of the most popular spots. Romagna wines, like Sangiovese and Trebbiano, also deserve a special mention, because they match perfectly the typically full and round tastes of our cuisine. Moreover, a wine tasting in Romagna can easily turn into a suggestive experience, as many local wineries and vineyards are now hosting al fresco tastings under the stars, between rows of grapevines. 

We’ve listed only a few examples of locally grown products that you can enjoy in a timeless atmosphere… and maybe decide to bring back home with you, so that you’ll always have a little piece of Romagna with you.
