Chef Antonio Friscia, founder of several successful restaurants,is a continual student of cuisine. Having studied at Scuola Albergeria in Italy and being an advanced sommelier are mere ingredients that serve to inform his creativity.
The Restaurant at Stingaree, launched in early 2006 to
critical acclaim, is in all respects a Friscia masterpiece.
His latest venture, Dish, shows every indication of
continuing the momentum Stingaree started and further
solidifying Friscia's roleas a major force on gourmet San Diego.
