After spending several nights in Capri and mainly choosing restaurants closer to our hotel, we decided to venture out a little further and found a place not far from the Funicolare. It's quite hidden and took some time to find as the entrance, which is a stairwell, is in between two restaurants if you are facing the sea with the clock tower immediately above. Once you get to the top, you will find a small restaurant (not many tables, perhaps 12-15). There are 2-3 tables with an amazing view of the piazza and the sea. Ask for the table on the balcony at sunset. Beautiful and romantic, you will not regret it. Very classic Capri. We didn't have a reservation so that table wasn't available, but was early enough to get a table in the corner with no wait, and could still see outside. The host was very accommodating and suggested a delicious red blend to start our evening. For appetizer, we chose the octopus salad. Very simply dressed with olive oil and salt, but perfectly cooked paired with juicy, fresh plum tomatoes. It was served in a leaf of radicchio. The presentation as well as the flavor was spot on. In true fashion, we both chose pasta for dinner to share, the homemade pasta with clam sauce and the spaghetti with zucchini. It was the most delicious clam sauce I've ever tasted. Very different than most back home which are traditionally a thin, white wine and garlic sauce. Pulalli featured a slightly thicker, creamier, robust sauce with plum tomatoes. This coated the homemade pasta nicely and created a flavorful environment for the small, but fresh clams. The spaghetti and zucchini was a fresh delight. It was paired with a smooth garlic, butter sauce, creamy in texture. The zucchini was sliced thin and was slight crispy, creating texture to the dish. Perfecto! What a way to say goodbye to Capri.
