Food - Craig LaBan - The Inquirer Gino Iovino has been hiding in plain sight and catering to a largely local crowd for 26 years at Girasole (3108 Pacific Ave.; 609-345-5554), an enduring sibling to the now-closed Philly branch, whose elegance inside the Ocean Club Condominium belies the seedy stretch of motels, liquor shops and strip clubs that surround it. Iovino’s love of fashion, as the longtime owner of the Eleganza Boutique, explains his restaurant’s lavish decor, with golden fabric waves rolling across the ceiling over a dining room done-up in deep Capri blue, polished marble tables, and the white brick dome of a Neapolitan pizza oven. That upscale aura always made me hesitate to detour from my usual mission of exploring new restaurants here for a visit. But Girasole happens to have a lunch deal — $15 for two courses — that is one of the best bargains anywhere. The spot-on Margherita pizza, so light and yet so flavorful (due to slow-fermenting and a touch of starter), is worth $15 on its own. But then I followed it with a plate of housemade cervellata sausages tanged with provolone, then proceeded to steal bites from my companions’ plates. A delicate stack of thin-sliced zuccchini and eggplant Parmesan exuded a homestyle Neapolitan touch. A superbly tender veal cutlet. A gossamer fan of tuna carpaccio topped with house-dried tomatoes and capers. A perfect carbonara whose al dente spaghetti, cooked to order from Gragnano pasta and glazed in the richness of beaten eggs and cheese, crackled with crisped guanciale and a healthy grind of black pepper. All of these delighted me as examples of true Italian cooking but also made me wonder: How does Girasole make any money on this menu at all? “We don’t,” admits Iovino. “It was created with smaller portions to give people a chance to try it and see what we do. So maybe they return for dinner.” Mission accomplished, Gino. I’ll be back. http://www.philly.com/philly/columnists/craig_laban/atlantic-city-restaurants-hard-rock-ocean-resorts-20180706.html?mobi=true
