Corsican cuisine is a revelation for many visitors. Outstanding produce, age-old recipes and bold flavours — a stay in Corsica is a culinary journey too. Here are the 10 must-tries you simply can't miss.
1. Corsican charcuterie — The absolute must
Lonzu, coppa, prisuttu, figatellu, salciccia... Corsican charcuterie is renowned the world over. Pigs reared semi-wild in the maquis give it an incomparable flavour. Best enjoyed with a glass of Patrimonio.
2. Brocciu — The emblematic cheese
The only Corsican cheese with AOC status. Fresh and mild, it features in many Corsican dishes: brocciu omelette, fritters and, of course, fiadone.
3. Fiadone — The Corsican dessert
A light brocciu cake flavoured with lemon and eau de vie. Simple, elegant and unforgettable. It's the dessert our restaurant proudly serves.
4. Grilled figatellu — A taste of winter
A herb-scented liver sausage, grilled over embers. A typically Corsican treat to try at a traditional restaurant in Porto-Vecchio.
5. Corsican wines — A pleasant surprise
Patrimonio, Ajaccio, Calvi — Corsican wines are often a lovely surprise for visitors. Nielluccio (red), Vermentino (white) and Muscat du Cap Corse are the signature grapes. To be enjoyed in moderation!
🍽️ Where to taste it? Our restaurant serves Corsican specialities right beside the pool. To go further, the markets of Porto-Vecchio and local producers' cellars are well worth a visit!
