Enzo Rosano grew up in a town just outside of Naples, Italy. His fondest memories of his childhood are centered around his mother’s cooking and the spirited meals he shared with his eight siblings. Mama Carmela’s amazing cooking kept her children close to home throughout their childhood and young adulthood. Her culinary influence also played a role in Enzo’s decision to enroll in the Scuola Alberghieria Culinary and Hospitality program in Naples. Upon completion of his culinary training, Enzo landed a job as bartender at Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Vong’s in London. Next was a stop as bar manager at The Berkeley Knightsbridge, a luxury property also in London. When he came to the Bay Area, his first stop was in Half Moon Bay where he helped open one of the town’s most popular restaurants, Mezza Luna, with family friend, Roberto Giovanni. At Caffe Riace,Enzo joined his brothers and worked alongside them as they made plans to open AquaPazza in San Mateo in 2008

• Indonesian / Malaysian • Walnut Creek

Traditionally inspired from dishes, ingredients & techniques spanning the Malay archipelago, namely Singapore & Indonesia. Regionally influenced by Northern California’s palette of producers, produce, and presentation. Essentially: expressing these tropical, cosmopolitan island flavor profiles through the abundance of what thrives in Northern California’s Mediterranean climate and terrain. Nusantara cuisines could be characterized as intense, rich, spiced (more than spicy). Steeped in time and layers of complexity, both in the kitchen and in the long history of diverse peoples in this part of the world. Chef Nora Haron draws from this wealth of culinary knowledge, plus contrasting Californian influences, which some could say to be the polar opposite: that deconstructed-composed, whole-ingredients-laid-bare simplicity, the lightness that has evolved in California eating through the few decades of this relatively young place.

We love the food and enjoyed great meals today at lunch. I got there early so I could ask the hostess to please note my grand daughter was home from college and it is her birthday. She said she would inform our server….. I knew my grand daughter would choose a chocolate dessert, which she did + her Mum and I also enjoyed our desserts. GREAT disappointment when 3 desserts arrived NO candle !!!!! Of course I didn’t make a fuss , however I wanted to !! The special moment was over and I left your restaurant feeling let down. We all love coming to True Food Kitchen in Walnut Crerk CA because we love the food and I knew when I told our grand daughter that’s where we would be having lunch….. she was, as expected …. excited. Please get through to your hostesses that some requests mean a great deal and they need to follow through !!! Antoinette ☹️

Locanda Poitano Keeps raising prices for the same dishes. My favorite dish has gone from 17.95 to 26.95 in past months. 2023-2024. Where does it end? When doses this restaurant start to give value to its customers? Sitting outside in the rain recently was not a GREAT experience. Water was not being controlled around the edges of the entries into the restaurant.
