ZUCCA – Italian
Zucca occupies the ground floor of the Hotel St. Michel on Alcazar Avenue, and it cooks Italian the long way round — regional, classical, technique first. The signature is in the name: zucchini blossoms stuffed with cheese and fried until they shatter. Around them sit hand-cut charcuterie, pasta made in house, grilled meats and regional seafood, and a cellar of well over two thousand bottles weighted heavily toward Italy, recognised five times by Wine Spectator. Coral Gables has no shortage of Italian dining rooms; few take the wine list this seriously. Old-world cooking, properly executed.
