Got Plate Lunch, Via del Corso, Curry Leaves Bistro | Check, Please! Bay Area

Описание: Up next on Check, Please! Bay Area: Just steps from Benicia’s waterfront, Got Plate Lunch brings a taste of Hawaii to the North Bay, serving up island-style comfort food with an extra helping of aloha. Diners dig into da “Mixed Plate”, featuring a little bit of everything, along with crispy kalua pork tots and the rich, savory ultimate loco moco, complete with beef patties, grilled Spam, and fried eggs. Nestled in the heart of North Berkeley, Via del Corso brings the flavors of central Italy to the Bay Area, with handmade pastas, slow-braised meats, and a menu inspired by the country’s diverse culinary regions. The ravioli alla coda di bue, stuffed with slow-braised oxtail, and the garlicky tagliolini alle vongole are standouts, while the creme caramel di zucca — a pumpkin custard with cranberry compote — makes for a perfect sweet finish. Rounding out the episode, Curry Leaves Bistro in Pleasanton takes guests on a journey through the vibrant street food of Penang, Malaysia. The bold, smoky char kway teow, wok-fried with prawns and bursting with wok hei — the inimitable flavor imparted by the wok — is a must-try, as is the crispy roti canai served with fragrant chicken curry. To cap off the episode, reporter Cecilia Phillips immerses herself in the high-energy world of Bhangra and Beats, a San Francisco festival that brings together pulsating Punjabi rhythms, electrifying dance performances, and a vibrant night bazaar.
