The menu is so tempting that it’s hard to choose – creamy hummus, kebabs, an Israeli salad, avocado toast – but the “don’t miss” is Motek’s shakshuka, a tangy dish of baked eggs, tomatoes, and peppers served […]
Restaurateur Tony Gallo and chef Pietro Vardeu have drawn crowds to Sardinia Enoteca in Sunset Harbour since 2006. Now the pair offers cuisine from another part of Italy. Apulia is a region in the southeast, the heel of the boot. In fact, it’s the nation’s top producer of olive oil and the birthplace of burrata. […]
