cioppino
San Francisco stew
Cioppino is an Italian-American seafood stew originating in San Francisco, made with fish, shellfish, and tomatoes in a wine-based broth.
The dish reflects the city's immigrant fishing community, typically featuring whatever catch was available: crab, clams, mussels, shrimp, and firm white fish.
We ordered the cioppino and shared it with crusty bread.
