Echoes of bustling European coffeehouses converge in Walnut Creek at the beloved Caffe La Scala, where diners savor coffees, panini, and desserts. Next, we head to the stylish Paradiso in San Leandro for its eclectic menu and open dining room with exposed beams and bright skylights. For our final stop, we head to San Francisco for hot-from-the-oven pizza-pies, boutique whiskeys and nostalgic decor at Capo's, a retro-Chicago style eatery inspired by Al Capone.
