On 14th May 2015 our cruise ship docked in Bastia. It was Bank Holiday and the town was very quiet. We made our way through the picturesque streets towards the old port for lunch passing this restaurant/delicatessen on our way.Arriving at the port we found that the restaurants were exactly what you would expect and turned around to go back to the little shop with its chalkboard outside. Inside was Aladdin's cave for foodies.We went upstairs where there are only 5 tables and tried the charcuterie and cheese platter washed down with rich Corsican wine, The flavours were astounding, the patron friendly and informative.We took the gentleman's web site address and hope to soon place our first ord...
We were lured by the authenticity of the store which is located behind the Bastia marina and were curious about what we would find inside. We were greeted by the owner who was super friendly. His passion for his produce which he makes himself was clearly evident and he was keen to share it with us. I highly recommend that you try some of the typical Corsican meat and cheese they're fantastic. We bought some cured meats from the store which we loved. We didn't dine at the restaurant because it was closed that night but we know it would have been a truely authentic Corsican dining experience.
This is a funny quirky very friendly little restaurant serving home cooked local dishes. It's worth going there simply to enjoy the owner running up and downstairs looking after his guests. Charming. I just wish I spoke some Italian so I could have enjoyed his chatter more. One word of warning - if you're not a dog lover, this might not be the perfect place for you, it's very doggie friendly.
A simple but VRAI restaurant. A typical and good wool from the entrance of the desert is authentic. The frame is rare because located above a charcuterie. The service is chichi-free, but the advice is just and wise. I recommend the figatelu with the polenta with chestnut flour, cheese and fiadone. Thank you so much for these moments.

For our last meal we went to this delightful restaurant in downtown Bastia where the owners' black lab met us. We had polenta, salad, cheese, omelet, bread, desert and wine. HIs wife cooks and the husband runs up and down the stairs serving the tables.
