"San Francisco diners are likely familiar with Adriano Paganini’s Back of the House restaurants, which include El Techo, a Mano, and local mini-chain Super Duper Burger. But his latest gets more personal, drawing inspiration from his childhood summers spent near the Ligurian Sea. Corzetti, located inside Hotel G near Union Square, serves seafood-centric and regional fare including seafood and shellfish ciuppin, a seafood stew similar to cioppino; pansotti in salsa di noci, a stuffed pasta filled with greens; and fazzoletti al pesto, a handkerchief-shaped pasta common in Liguria." - Lauren Saria
