How it all began

The Manuelina tavern opens, frequented over the years by greats such as Montale, D'Annunzio and Einstein: the revolution of the Focaccia di Recco begins.
Manuelina moves to its current location and becomes the typical restaurant loved by many gourmets and cited by Umberto Eco in Foucault's Pendulum.
Focacceria Manuelina is born, a typical fast food a few meters from the Restaurant.
La Focacceria Manuelina lands in Milan with the second store in the Rinascente Annex.
It's the year of a new great revolution! The Restaurant becomes The Gourmet Restaurant, for an even more immersive and tasty experience.

 

The Carbone family

Today it is we, Manuelina's great-grandchildren, who carry on the tradition. Over the years we have managed to maintain her passion, dedication and respect for the quality of the cuisine and raw materials to the point where “Manuelina” has become a true brand that encompasses the renowned Restaurant, a 4-star Taste Hotel, a prestigious catering and of course our Focacceria Bistro.
