Cioppino
Cioppino (, ; from lij, cioppin ) is a fish stew originating in San Francisco, California. It is an Italian-American dish and is related to various regional fish soups and stews of Italian cuisine. Description Cioppino is traditionally made from the catch of the day, which in San Francisco is typically a combination of Dungeness crab, clams, shrimp, scallops, squid, mussels and fish, all sourced from the ocean, in this case the Pacific. The seafood is then combined with fresh tomatoes in a wine sauce. The dish can be served with toasted bread, either local sourdough or French bread. The bread acts as a starch, similar to a pasta, and is dipped into the sauce. History Cioppino was developed in the late 1800s by Italian immigrants who fished off Meiggs Wharf and lived in the North Beach neighborhood of San Francisco, many from the port city of Genoa. When a fisherman came back empty-handed, they would walk around with a pot to the other fishermen asking them to chip in whatever ...

Italian-American Cuisine
Italian-American cuisine is a style of Italian cuisine adapted throughout the United States.

Many of these foods and recipes developed into new favorites for the townspeople and later for Americans nationwide.

Meiggs Wharf
Meiggs' Wharf (also known as Meigs Wharf and Meiggs' Pier) was an L-shaped wooden pier extending between from the northern San Francisco shoreline, an exceptional distance for its time. It was built to attract the lumber shipping trade by transplanted San Franciscan Henry Meiggs as part of his real estate development plans for what would become the North Beach area of San Francisco. Though it bankrupted him in the process, it would become a major part of North Beach and San Francisco society life. The Pier The pier was exceptionally long for its day, regarded by many as built in the wrong place: currents and tides ran strong at the northern tip of San Francisco off North Beach, and ships at dock were not protected by a breakwater as they were further inside San Francisco Bay at the Embarcadero. Most ships preferred the quieter waters and sailed on to safer berths there. Anchored between north-south Mason and Powell Streets and a bit north of where east-west Bay Street (the ol ...
