Cibo (pronounced chee-bo) means food in Italian, but it’s more of a feast for the senses. An intimate yet vibrant atmosphere is accentuated with expressive art in the form of photography, paintings, sculpture, hand-blown glass and live jazz. Fusing the best of old and new world Italian cuisine, Cibo offers an eclectic menu from gourmet pizzas to multi-course dinners.

*Pasta Calogero*

This popular dish was inspired by Calogero, a dear friend and restaurant owner in Sicily. It’s a delightful seafood medley served over capellini. It begins with sauteed garlic and shallots in extra virgin olive oil. Add to that crab, rock shrimp, Manila clams, mussels, chopped Roma tomatoes, butter, white wine and clam broth. By far our biggest-selling item. Grazie Calogero! 301 Alvarado St., Monterey, (831) 649-8151, www.cibo.com
