Dining Outside the Home: Alberto’s on Fifth in Naples, Florida! There’s nothing that makes me feel more special than dining on white linen tablecloths. Call me crazy, but I simply love it. Now, imagine this table in the mountainous part of Northern Italy where the chef is transforming ordinary food into spectacular dishes. The secret, you wonder? Fresh, local vegetables, pasta, and seafood with fewer processed ingredients. Traditions are important, cutting corners is not. Each dish is a form of art. Creamy mozzarella, salty prosciutto, and fresh basil leaves will literally drive your tastebuds crazy. Listen to the chatter. Crowd-pleasers are everywhere. Linger over the delicious Italian balsamic vinaigrette drizzled over a garden salad. The aromas seduce the palate with a slightly spicy taste. Aging is the secret, of course. But it doesn’t matter what I say, it’s the velvety texture on the tongue that is the judge. Take smaller bites to enjoy the meal longer. It has profound effects that will find you enjoying the meal with satisfying results.

Can you believe I’m actually 6 months behind?! Someone told me this…..Every restaurant in Naples is good. If they aren’t, they won’t last. We tend to ask the servers where they go when they’re not working. We have found many “hidden gems” that way. Now that we are in our new home, we will probably eat out less. Being in a hotel for 9 months was one reason we tried so many places. 🍃🌺🌴

You’ll laugh….when we were living in Kauai at the cottage, I took a white bed sheet and covered the table on the lanai. Tropical flowers were my centerpiece. We had a romantic dinner for two at sunset. Loved it! 🌴🌊🌺
