LUCA TURCI ITALIAN RESTAURANT – Italian
Chef Luca Turci's Winter Park dining room works the line between old-country technique and something more theatrical - the Antipasti Clothesline arrives strung up rather than plated, and the summer bruschetta is finished tableside. Pastas are made fresh: pappardelle inferno, penne with pesto and burrata, pumpkin ravioli, a lasagna under his own name. The bigger plates run to beef Wellington, duck and gnocchi, lamb with saffron risotto. Tiramisu and cannoli close it out. Turci also runs Turci Pasta and Turci Panino nearby, so the pasta obsession is not an act.
