In this episode, we revisit three Mediterranean-themed restaurants from previous series. Our first stop serves dishes you’ll find on the busy side streets of Rome. Now you can enjoy them in San Francisco at Ristorante Ideale. Then, a casual place in Berkeley where energetic and charming staff serves crispy wrappers surrounding flavorful fillings at Le Mediterranee. Lastly, homey comfort, a warm welcome and pungent, lively flavors contrast with those of the Italian mainland at a Sardinian spot located in San Francisco called La Ciccia.
