Restaurant du Centre Nautique, Bonifacio, Corse, France

Like several other cities in Corsica, Bonifacio is split into a "high city" and a "low city". The "high city" is the old town, inside the citadel and offers many dining options. If you are lucky, you can get an amazing view on the Meditarranean sea, but in terms of food, it will be difficult to avoid "tourist menus" with Corsican classics such as Corsican veal, Corsican charcuterie, brocciu, or chestnut cake. If you prefer to have seafood, you will find plenty of choice in the "low city". We had lunch at Restaurant du Centre Nautique, which does not look impressive from outside, but have nice and fresh seafood on the menu.

To start we had a tomato mozzarella salad, and mussels napolitana. Then, we ordered baby squids and skate fillet. Everything was nicely cooked and seasoned, and we had a delicious red fruits panna cotta to finish our meal.
