Food

My suggestions:

• There is many possibilities in Genoa town (pizza, baggels, sushi, sandwich, etc.)

• Last year in France we went to a restaurant for dinner Saturday evening, I enjoyed that quite much. I would suggest us we continue in this tradition this year as well. We need to find a not too expensive restaurants in Genoa city center.

• Anyway, let's me hear your food preferences below:

Name	Food Preference
Gilles Caulier	None
Supreet Pal Singh	Vegetarian Food
Dhruv Patel	Vegetarian Food
Francesco Riosa	Local Food
