If you’ve ever been to Naples, Fla., Culaccino makes sense. Oddly but appropriately, Naples specializes in Italian food, and so does Culaccino chef and owner Frank Pullara, who hails from the South Florida city. Anchored by an airy patio and a modern yet cozy space, Culaccino serves housemade pastas and wood-fired pizzas alongside family recipes. It’s not surprising that cocktails like the Beauty Queen (tequila, rosemary, ginger, lime, lavender, lambrusco) deliver — culaccino is the Italian word for the lasting impression a cold glass leaves on a wooden table. What a word. What a place. Perfezione.
