Top choice in Naples
A wine shop by day, 'Noah's Drunkenness' transforms into an intimate culinary hot spot by night. Slip inside for vino and conversation with sommelier Luca at the bar, or settle into one of the bottle-lined dining rooms for seductive, market-driven dishes such as house special paccheri fritti (fried pasta stuffed with aubergine and served with fresh basil and a rich tomato sauce).
Topping it off are about 2800 wines, including nearly 500 champagnes from smaller producers. Book ahead.
