If you can’t make it to Italy this summer, you can find a little bit of Naples in a 50-seat corner restaurant in downtown Fort Lauderdale.
At Luigi’s Coal Oven Pizza, chef Luigi DiMeo kneads the dough and cooks the sauce, following many of the rules created by the official Associazione Vera Pizza Napoletana. His crust is crisp and just a little chewy. It’s thin, but not too thin. Ask for it well-done, and it arrives with the blackened edges that I adore.

Restaurants have a way of drifting from their original paths, relying too much on old menu items and old ways of doing things. Other times, they become so attached to novelty that the things that made them brilliant fade away.
Eighty-five years ago, the spot now known as Cap’s Place opened as Club Unique. Popular through the 1940s as a supper club and casino operated by Eugene "Cap" Knight and his wife, Lola, it’s believed to be the oldest restaurant in Broward County. It even has a spot on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Tipsy Boar, the latest addition to the Sardelli family’s Hollywood restaurant fiefdom (Fulvio’s 1900, Vino, Sardelli’s on Hollywood Beach), is a gut-busting, beer-swigging delight.
