The French Mediterranean coastline offers golden beaches, breathtaking views, and remarkably fresh seafood. For vacationers and locals alike, summertime brings vibrant seasonal dishes. Pull up a chair at a seaside restaurant, and enjoy all that the brilliantly blue Mediterranean Sea has to offer.

Begin meze-style with a variety of dishes to share. First, a platter of smoky eggplant salad with tomatoes, fresh oregano, briny capers and fruity extra virgin olive oil. Besides it, a dish of salt cured baby potatoes with homemade aioli. On a neighboring plate, a grilled bread salad with summer tomatoes, sheep’s milk feta topped with fried capers.

As our main dish: a final fruit de mer – fruit of the sea: steamed clams served in a rich broth with sweet summer corn.

Imagine a warm salty breeze as we make a summer Mediterranean holiday from our San Francisco classroom!
