Monterosso Anchovies Festival

This is something! The real taste of Monterosso on all the village tables: fresh anchovies, that here are so delicious and special, cooked every style: fried, in tegame, marinated with lemon, on bruschettas with tomatoes! It is so fun strolling around and get this delicious food.

One of the highlights of every season for Monterosso and the Cinque Terre (along with the Lemon Festival)  is the Anchovies Festival, that happens twice, in June and September.
