This episode is sponsored by Kaaboo Del Mar, the three-day music and comedy festival, featuring Katy Perry, Foo Fighters, Robert Plant, and more at the Del Mar Racetrack and Fairgrounds September 14–16.

On today’s show, we’re chatting about a pasta shop headed to the East Village, Le Parfait Paris’s new beer and wine garden at Fashion Valley Mall, and a healthy eatery coming to Solana Beach.

Our guest is Emmanuel Piqueras, executive chef of Pisco Rotisserie & Cevicheria in Liberty Station and Carlsbad. Over some ceviche and Peruvian beer, we’re discussing how he landed a TV show, partnering with Sammy Ladecki on the Peruvian concept, and why this New York-based chef wanted to work in San Diego.

In Two People/$50, we’re dining at Alexander’s, Panama66, Fathom Bistro, Bait & Tackle, and Born & Raised.
